We met with close friends on Saturday night at the Parkfield Inn\u00a0in Whitefield, down the bottom end of Park Lane.<\/p>\n

We were pleasantly surprised to be given a round table for six in the corner.<\/p>\n

The menu was quite varied and the noise level thankfully way below talking levels… so we were off to a good start.<\/p>\n

Would I go back? Yes I would as it was local… Would I make a special trip across town? Errr… probably not.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
