Fancett's
An independent French bistro on Mill Road, offering fixed-price menus for lunch and dinner, recommended by the Michelin Guide.
A small, independent French bistro run by chef Dan Fancett, located at 96a Mill Road. It offers fixed-price set menus for both lunch and dinner, with a short menu that changes with seasonal ingredients. The Michelin Guide praises its generous portions and authentic French flavors, specifically mentioning the twice-baked Cheddar soufflé and pear tarte Tatin, alongside hand-cut beef tartare. The restaurant has limited seating and an intimate atmosphere, so booking in advance is recommended. Sources vary on whether dinner is served on Tuesdays, so it is best to confirm before heading out. It can be reached from the city center on foot or by bus.
Opening hours
Wed–Sat 12:00–16:00, 18:00–23:00; Tuesday dinner varies by source; closed Sun–Mon
