What people say, in short
Many commenters recommend Stockbridge Eating House, and a few point to its set lunch, with one saying the midday set menu is budget-friendly compared with the full menu. Two commenters describe the room as cosy, though one notes the seating is at shared long tables, and a couple of commenters praise the food's quality. The main caveat is portion size: a couple of commenters say portions are small, and one of them calls it a light lunch.
