I used to frequent the Kenny in the days when it was a chaotic beery dive so decided to investigate the voucher in my Invitation Book (20% off) that seemed to suggest I might be able to buy nice food here. I was hugely taken with its 'new' look - spacious, modern, friendly, neat. The outside area is very superior in comparison with most - it feels like a properly constructed outside room instead of the usual selection of rickety stained beergarden tables. And inside is airy, with nice solid tables decorated with candles in bottles. The staff appeared to be particularly friendly, relaxed and obliging. Tap water came in a carafe with ice and a slice, and with no attitude problem. The menu, though short, is appealing but with not a lot of options for those of a delicate stomach or disposition. As I had a delicate stomach that day I went for the starter salad of baby spinach with pine nuts, goats' cheese and other bits (£6 I think). It was most tasty and went down very well. My friend had the 'thrice cooked' chips with fish. At £11.50 this did seem a bit steep, especially as the portion size was by no means huge, but we agreed that the food was very good - as was the house wine. Because I was driving I couldn't have more than a glass of wine - and actually fancied a nice cup of tea, which the lovely staff were happy to bring. We really enjoyed the food, drink and ambience and I will definitely be returning. I felt at home here. This is proper food, not basic pub grub though, and this is certainly reflected in the price (restaurant) and portion sizes (not for darts players or hungry truckers).
