The dessert, Torta di Formagi, topped with tart blackberries, exemplifies how La Campagna excels in balancing flavors that can only be described as divine.
The selection doesn’t stop there. Guests have also sung the praises of the spaghetti bolognese, flawlessly plated and bursting with authentic Italian flavor.

Feb. 2022. This now well established and popular venue, continues to produce provender of the highest quality. I have been attending the establishment for many years now and it remains one of my favourite restaurants. This night the lamb shank - Agnello Brasato - was a melt in the mouth shoulder of lamb on a generous bed of mash pototo, brocoli and 'heritage' carrots. The cheesecake - Torta di Formagi - came with a topping of tart blackberries, a good foil to the cheese. And of course, the Sanglovese Rubicone, to wash it all down with. Probably the most agreeable 'house red' in any Italian restaurant. December '21 The panic (of them leaving) is over, but the pandemic remains. The spaghetti bolognese, mixed up like it should be, is beyond reproach and the Fragola e Lampone dessert, comes out better with every presentation. GOOD NEWS - BAD NEWS. Aug 2019 Having eaten here often and always finding both the service and the food up to expectation, both waifu and I agreed to visit this establishment for our (whatever-it-was) 'th anniversary. Booking in advance and mentioning the occasion, the staff had placed roses on our table and we were treated to a complimentary aperitif. The food (taken from the lunch menu) met expectations as did the house red, a modest but pleasing Sangiovese Rubicone 2018, which washed down the meal very well. The day was cold, but the sun shone through the windows, the staff were attentive and amiable and all made the lunch experience most agreeable. That's the GOOD news. The BAD news, is they are leaving. Avaricious land-lords demands have induced a going concern to take their business elsewhere. So, dear reader, if you wish to experience this excellent establishment or wish to do so again, get a wiggle on - they will be gone beginning in July. Moving to Winford apparently - but more of this later.
Very tasty food, a good selection with great service.
Popped into this restaurant for a beer on the way back. Definitely quirky and a warm feeling to the place. The staff are really friendly and accommodating. The beer tastes really good and they have a high food hygiene rating. The beer garden is really nice. The grass is kept to a high standard and the children’s play area is epic. Great for the kids while you enjoy a beer in the garden. Will be stopping by here for some food next time.
Fabulous food and lovely staff. A good all-around experience, and I have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant
During our stay in one of the nearby villages we were looking for somewhere nice to eat that didn’t have an early closing time. We settled on this restaurant/pub and were really impressed, the food tasted great and the staff were very friendly and efficient. It was a friday evening and the place was bustling, you can tell it is a popular establishment.
Really good quality food, great value for money, fantastic atmosphere, and service, would highly recommend
Absolutely wonderful experience at La Campanga on Saturday night. We didn’t know what to expect just visiting the area, but we were blown away by the high quality of service and attentiveness we received from the staff, and the food was excellent. The waitresses were knowledgeable about my gluten free dietary requirement which was wonderful too. Thanks so much.
Visited there last night for a family birthday celebration. We were given our own private area which was great. The food choice and quality was amazing, all beautifully presented and hot. Even more impressive were the staff who went out of their way to make us welcome. They were all so friendly and so patient with our party. Shame I don't live locally or I'd be a regular in no time! I would highly recommend!
