Part of the Whitbread family, Table Table restaurants aim to bring great value tasty pub food to an ever increasing eating-out public who like well prepared and genuine food served by friendly staff in relaxing surroundings. If that sounds too much like a dream come true be assured that at Table Table they also walk the talk, and are pleased to have the chance to prove it.

Their well located restaurants are spread across a wide range of decors and styles, and all of them share a determination to provide comfort, warmth and relaxation. Their buffet menus for special occasions are remarkable value

In keeping with modern trends they provide dishes to nibble or share as guests consider the spread of options on a menu that could be described as British with welcome incursions. So as you share long Italian flatbread, and dough balls and dips, or a sharing platter with an imaginative range of finger food starting with garlic and breaded mushrooms, it's time to think about the relative merits of aromatic duck parcels, a prawn cocktail, breaded Camembert or sticky chicken goujons to name but a few.

Many an innocent dish from the past has been hi-jacked in the best possible sense into becoming what is now called a 'pub classic'. Wiltshire cured ham with eggs is served with chunky chips and beef, mushroom and ale pie, or chicken and chips are all familiar with British tables, be they in the dining room or the kitchen. Now they have been added to by chicken fajitas, a sweet red pepper, crème fraiche and fennel tart, a leg of duck slowly cooked and served with a Bramley apple and cider sauce, or chilli con carne with basmati rice, sour cream and guacamole and nachos. So is the humble burger with six enticing toppings.

The point is they, and others, are all here at Table Table, well prepared with quality ingredients, and presented in a way that makes you hungry even if you thought you weren't.

Getting down to the more serious side of the table keep an eye open for the seafood pie, a delightful assembly of things fishy including crayfish, red snapper, prawns and clams. Many of their steaks are 28 days matured, including a 7oz fillet. All steaks are served with watercress, roasted cherry tomatoes, a flat mushroom and chunky chips. A choice from 4 sauces adds the final touch of enjoyment.

Pastas and salads embrace some well known and loved names, but for sheer enjoyment the hot smoked salmon salad takes some beating - flakes of hot smoked salmon mixed with a house salad and soy and ginger sauce. A real winner.

Snacks aplenty cover hot baguettes with the like of grilled pork loin and Bramley apple sauce, sandwiches filled with Cheddar cheese, or prawns and Marie Rose sauce, and jacket potatoes with such temptations as chilli con carne. Add a bowl of chips for only a little extra.

A well travelled wine list offers helpful advice for the uninitiated and there's an impressive choice of draught and bottled beers and lagers. All in all it would appear that Table Table are more than achieving their aims, providing the opportunity for people to eat out enjoyably, with excellent value for money. Long may they continue to do so.

Nestled amidst the rural splendour of Cornwall, the Restaurant at Cadgwith Cove Inn showcases the region's umbilical connection with the sea with an appetising spread of fresh fish and seafood specials. For over 300 years, the Inn has remained much the same, since the Cove's old smuggling days. The bar is full of atmosphere with assorted maritime relics adorning the walls to reflect the region's rich seafaring history.

Every day the boats deliver fresh catch of crab, lobster, mackerel, mullet and shark and the restaurant makes good use of it. Guests dining here can expect crab soup with crusty bread, fish and chips, scampi, homemade crab pâté, fish casserole, red mullet with bacon and whole grilled plaice. For pudding, try the blackberry and apple pie with clotted cream or treacle tart. A fine selection of cask ales complements the hearty menu. Making it more convenient to get to it is the fact that the venue is within easy reach of the South and the Midlands via the M5 and A30.

Inside its cosy, especially during winter when the log fires are ablaze, and the Smithy's building next door is a wonderful place to spend time with the family.

Alongside familiar fare such as Cornish fish pie and homemade steak and kidney pudding the inn's menu also includes more adventurous offerings like the chicken tikka salad served with mango and mint yoghurt dips with a crispy poppadom. Unsurprisingly there is an emphasis on locally sourced seafood with dishes such as crab thermidor or crab and prawn Mornay offered at a very reasonable price. Hot chocolate fudge cake or caramel apple pie with custard, clotted cream or ice cream may prove to be popular choices at dessert time. The owners emphasise the fact that the Ship Inn is a pasty and chip free zone and the food is always freshly cooked.
