Aubergine parmigiana layered baked aubergine, basil, tomato and Parmesan with Pesto linguine (N) £10.45
This would be a good low carb option, but obviously without the linguine - ask if you could have a green salad instead
Smoked haddock & salmon fishcakes with tomato salad £10.95
Nope definitely not! They will be mixed with potato and coated in breadcrumbs
Chicken breast with wild mushrooms, tarragon pappardelle pasta and Parmesan £12.95
Again, all fine apart from the pasta. See if they can replace it with some green veg/salad
Pan fried lamb rump served with Greek salad £13.95
Sounds perfect
Braised pork belly on stir-fried rice noodles with sticky teriyaki glaze (N) £12.95
Although the pork belly is fine, the glaze will be sweet/sugary (this is what makes it sticky) and obviously the noodles are out
Buttercross Farm free range pork, sage and onion sausages with butter mash and onion gravy £10.95
It's always difficult with sausages to know how carby they might be. Even good quality sausages, which have a higher meat content, can sometimes be too high in carbs. You'd have to miss out on the mash as well, so I'd probably give this option a miss
Steak and kidney suet pudding with mashed potato and buttered greens £12.95
No! Suet and mashed potato definitely not allowable!
Pappardelle Marinara- mussels, king prawns and calamari in a rich tomato and herb sauce on pappardelle £13.95
Nope
Slow cooked rose veal with chive and saffron risotto £14.50
The veal sounds lovely, but the risotto is obviously out.
Duck breast with dauphinoise potatoes, mixed veg and port sauce £16.95
Would be OK without the potatoes and also the sauce - which could be both sweet and thickened with flour/cornflour
Whole grilled plaice with caper and dill butter, new potatoes and Summer greens £15.95
Perfect, just ask for something low carb in place of the potatoes - extra summer greens, or some green salad
Crispy beef salad with sweet chilli and cashew nuts (N) £12.45
Probably not. Crispy beef is usually coated in flour before being deep fried, and the chilli sauce will be very carby - and cashew nuts aren't really low carb
Sweet potato, blue cheese and spinach lasagne, with garlic bread & rocket salad £10.45
Nope - sweet potato, pasta and bread all rule this out!
Braised lamb shoulder with Dauphinoise potatoes, rosemary and redcurrant gravy £16.95
Again, whilst the lamb would be perfect, you'd have to ask for a replacement for the potatoes. And a redcurrant gravy will probably be a bit too carby
10oz rump steak with watercress and horseradish butter, wild mushrooms, tomato and chips £17.95
Perfect, just without the chips!
8oz steak burger topped with grilled bacon, Cheddar served with coleslaw and chips £11.95
Ask for the burger without the bun (or just leave it), and ask for a salad instead of the chips. Beware that coleslaw can also be quite carby so go easy with that
Honey glazed ham with free-range eggs and chips £10.95
OK - but the honey will add carbs. And again, no chips!
Deep fried haddock in beer batter with chips, mushy peas and tartare sauce £12.25
All of this will be high carb - unless you just picked the fish out of the batter
Ploughmans - Honey glazed ham, duck pate, Garstang Blue, Quickes Smoked Cheddar, pickles & crusty bread £10.50
Would be fine, if you could eat it without the bread.
Hope that helps. It's never easy to navigate your way around a menu, although if you're prepared to ask the restaurant to make substitutions then it's doable. But some of these dishes would suffer without their carby element, I think.
Just imagine, though, if you were faced with the same menu if you were trying to follow a low calorie or low fat diet - your choices would be even narrower.
