The Regent

Food

As soon as we walked in and saw the oven, I knew I was going to have pizza. There were a few not typical flavours on the list, but I couldn’t eat the ingredients on a lot of them, so we had Buffalo (£9.25) - mozzarella, cherry tomato, olives & basil, which had a beautifully done crust and nice tomato sauce, the mozzarella was not the best quality, the cherry tomatoes not that sweet (and too little of it), and I don’t think the olives really went with it. The Vegetable (£7.95) - aubergine, courgette, peppers, mushrooms & mozzarella was much better. The same crisp base and tasty sauce, with some soft vegetables oozing flavours.

Atmosphere

The place is great, with heavy wooden furniture, high ceilings, a gorgeous looking bar and toys for the kids. Now, just need a way to get rid of the people so there is actually room to sit.

Service

It’s a pub, so you order and pay at the bar, they bring the food to you, you help yourself to cutlery and drinks. It took a long time for the food to arrive though, understandable as they only had one small oven for the pizza. Just don’t be in a hurry.

C-factor

Good quality pizza, a little expensive, but this is a rich area.
