exciting cooking
 

we'd like to think our food offer has gone from strength to strength since day one. a string of excellent reviews can be browsed in our "essence of" page, and we continue to have busy and vibrant lunch and dinner sittings every day. our chefs have constructed a sterling new menu, combining some signature dishes that have proved highly popular from last year, with some new 2009 summer gems to rock your appetite.

we are serving lunch and dinner from noon til 9.30pm every day.

villager also serves a splendid sunday roast every sunday !
