Situated on Platform 2 of Cottingham station, the Old Lamp Roomis a beacon among other train station offerings. Dave Leediscovers a fun, good value and effervescent little restaurant.
It’s a little-known fact that, for a short while, I lived in Cottingham. It’s a perfectly pleasant place with some lovely houses, good local shops, a couple of decent pubs and quite a few residents who insist on using the ‘largest village in England’ title without offering any definitive proof for the claim and who you can merrily engage in pointless, pedantic debate about the difference between large villages and small towns. I’ve used the train station in Cott a fair few times.
Among the starters and lighter dishes, I’ve tried homemade focaccia and dips - which turned out to be a single dish filled with more Romescu, spinach hummus and a covering of feta and rocket leaves - and kale crisps and spicy chickpeas, which mixed together marvellously leaving me wondering if I could replicate them in my airfryer at home. On the mains section, but still not a heavy plateful, sourdough crumpets come topped with a cheese rarebit and an accompanying Waldorf salad.
