Don't get me wrong, this is a lovely place with friendly staff and the food is very nice - but the problem is that I nearly always get the same thing when I come here since the menu is fairly limited.

I would rather give 3.5 stars but rounding down instead of up is probably fairer in my opinion.

I think I am too young to dine in The Georgian House - I mean look at me using the word 'dine' instead of 'eat' when I refer to it - it makes me come over all snobbish.

The staff are nice and the house itself is exactly that, a big old house and when you enter there are two seating areas which used to be two big living rooms.

Weirdly, there wasn't a single man in either room - just groups of two or three ladies who all appeared to be talking either about church or other people! They were all in for some fine-dining and I felt like a right plank sitting on my own with a book. I ordered lunch anyway though cause I was hungry. I wouldn't have if i'd seen the menu before - I was after a baked potato or maybe a wee baguette - something filling, cheap and wholesome. I definitely ordered the wrong thing.

I ordered cajun chicken and it was nice, a bit more substance to the dish would have been better but it looked very good. A toasted burger bap with lettuce leaves on top, then three strips of chicken marinated in Cajun spices - no top bun! a little mango chutney and some fat chips - tasty but more like a piece of art with all the sauces drizzled over it and the layout on the plate.

One cup of tea and three bits of cajun chicken was £9.45p - way too expensive for me and too serious for my liking - I was glad when it was time to leave.

One really good thing is that they give you a lovely fat after eight after paying - yum yum!
