Until Sunday 15 February you can pick up a starter, main, side, and dessert for two, as well as a bottle of wine or bubbly and a single stem rose for just £20.

Some of the deliciously tempting dishes on offer include scallops and chorizo, duck a l'orange and Valentine's heart chocolate soufflé. You can view the full menu here.
