The Ferry in Cookham

My parents came to visit me in High Wycombe and we went out for Sunday lunch with my boyfriend Tom. I sent them a list of places we could eat and pops went for this one.

It has great views over The Thames and has quite a rustic, yet modern feel to it. It was a busy Sunday lunch and the ceilings are high so it was a bit too noisy and was hard to hear each other.

The menu is pretty varied and on Sundays they do a good roast menu where starters and desserts are only £3 extra each.

I went for the roast pork, which was £12. It had great crackling which is always a must with pork. The veggies were good too- a nice buttery selection.

For starters I had a really good fish cake packed with fish and lovely fluffy potato. It was served with a good tartare sauce.

For dessert I had Spanish churros with chocolate sauce. The churros were hot and sugary and tasted divine. I wasn't a huge fan of the chocolate sauce which was a bit artificial but still good.

Tom went for the prawn linguine which was a good portion and mum had mushroom brioche and fish pie, which was good.

Dad had chicken wings, which weren't saucey enough for him, but he said the roast lamb was good and he loved the creme brûlée.

We shared a nice bottle of Chilean merlot, which was reasonably priced.

Overall a lovely meal in an excellent setting.
