The Moon and Sixpence

Description:

• Smart and relaxed, with an outside covered patio and a few more tables out in the open in summer, this is tucked away under an arch off Broad Street just above the Postal Museum. Mostly used as a good class restaurant, though quite a few regulars use it as wine bar, this is a reliable, but not cheap, favourite with many. Cuisine is what might be termed contemporary European, and lunch is excellent value at £6.75 for two courses, desserts £3.50, with the evening set menu at around £20. Try not to be seated upstairs; it's on the way to the WC. Dress, although casual, is inevitably smart and mostly black, while the staff are usually svelte and sociable.
