Market House

Surrounded by a plethora of fast food junk establishments stands an icon of hope and joy, the Market House. Service and cooking is to an excellent standard; Both dishes I had were showcasing fresh, high-quality ingredients and thoughtful flavour combinations. The Pinney's Hot Smoked Scottish Salmon was a standout. The salmon itself was perfectly smoked, with a delicate balance of smoky flavour and moist texture. The smoked buttermilk cream added a luxurious richness that complemented the salmon beautifully, while the cauliflower provided a subtle earthiness and textural contrast. The herbed cracker added a satisfying crunch and a burst of fresh herbs. The main course ; Whole Baked Lemon Sole was another winner. The sole was cooked to perfection, with flaky, tender flesh and a delicate lemony flavor. The celeriac fondant was a revelation, offering a creamy, melt-in-your-mouth texture and a subtle sweetness that paired perfectly with the fish. The roasted fennel added a touch of anise flavor and a satisfying bite, while the kosho pear provided a unique and exciting twist with its spicy, fruity notes. The dish was also gluten-free, which is a bonus for those with dietary restrictions Overall, both dishes were expertly prepared and presented, demonstrating a clear passion for quality ingredients and culinary creativity. For food lovers hope shines eternal at the Market House

Great service, beautiful space and fantastic location, love that there are additional floors above which can be hire for private events, workshops and cookery classes. I’d like to see some cleaner veggie dishes that are gluten free and dairy-free, that’s my reservation. Thank you for a lovely time, I really enjoyed my parsnip soup and will be back to see if the menu has been updated.
