Congratulations to Kavanagh's always number one on my list.

We have a number of good establishments here in Oakham.

and in my opinion Kavanagh's is the best.

My second best slipped away after the owners started taking

days off and staff felt this was time to let basic standards slip

Mobile phones, gossiping and the consumption of make me thin drinks

became more important than customers.

Happily this does not happen at Kavanagh's it does not matter if you

just pop in for a pot of tea costing under £3 or full afternoon tea

or a end of the week evening meal Kavanagh's staff treat all their

guests the in the same welcoming manner. Well done Kavanagh's

good luck for the judging.
