Restaurant Tristan sits on the first floor of a 16C town centre property and comes with a characterful original oak-beamed ceiling, exposed hanging lightbulbs and a bright, airy feel. It is also one of those all-too-hard-to-find places where the atmosphere is refreshingly relaxed, helped along in no small part by the friendly, enthusiastic serving team; it’s no wonder then, that it celebrated its 10^th anniversary in 2018.

Committed chef-owner Tristan Mason can always be found behind the stoves and he wisely offers a good variety of well-priced menus to keep the locals coming back time and again. Excellent quality ingredients feature in creative, carefully crafted dishes that are delivered with a modern touch, and flavours and textures are distinct and well-matched. Breakfast and lunch are served in the ground floor café but it’s the tasting menus at dinner that are the ones to go for.
