Fleur – the 45-seat dining room inside The Royal – nails the balance between relaxed and refined. 

You might start with miso mushroom french toast and kingfish crudo with smoked bone dressing before moving onto larger dishes like chou farci and coal-roasted market fish with broccoli sambal and mussels. 

Finish with banoffee mille-feuille and rhubarb tart for dessert. 

A comprehensive drinks list also adds to the fun. The cocktail menu includes strawberry gum Daiquiris and lemon myrtle coladas for dinnertime enjoyment. The wine list, meanwhile, has drops natural and conventional, local and international. An eight-seat bar to the side of the dining room is on offer for pre- and post-dinner drinks as well as solo diners.
