Andrew and Lisa Radford own both Blue and the award-winning restaurant, the Atrium. Whilst the Atrium draws a fine dining clientele, ‘Blue’ appeals to a bustling, light-bite crowd. Its appealing brand of minimalism combines acres of glass, pale oak and stainless steel. The menu, which changes every month, complements the space. Light, finely prepared soups, sandwiches, salads, fish and meat are prepared with seasonal ingredients, often locally sourced. Recommended dishes include sea bream, tuscan bread, cucumber and basil, and black pudding, apple and potato rosti. Dessert options include a frothy chocolate and raspberry cheesecake. The wine list is well chosen and there is a wide selection of spirits, beers and cocktails. Blue was recently nominated for a UKTV food hero award, which celebrates places both committed to local food traditions and to quality. Blue is closed on Sundays.
