The roast was excellent, the sweet wonderful, and the service very good. Very good value for money. The bar and restaurant are very noisy, although we went on a Sunday which was super busy.

Quality food in a relaxed environment, eager to help with dietary requirements. We visited at lunchtime which wasn't the busiest time so difficult to rate speed of service, but overall experience was very good.

The starter and main course were excellent, just wished the desserts were more interesting. I had ice cream with hot chocolate fudge sauce mainly because I didn't fancy anything else on the dessert menu. Also our wine in a wine cooler, was placed on a shelf behind where we sat. We were re-assured by the waiter he would be re-filling our glasses on a regular basis. It did happen after our glasses had been empty for a while, but the next time we did it ourselves as it looked like we could be in for a long wait. Apart from that we had a lovely evening.

Delicious food and great service, points deducted as twice cooked pork belly was more like a slice of fried pork roll, so not as good as usual.

Food was nicely presented all courses were good except for the whitebait which appeared to have been cooked too far in advance therefore not as crispy as it should have been and left a strong bitter taste in the mouth. Meet and greet was also disappointing. Instead of being escorted to the table the hostess simply pointed to where our table was . The table however suited our party very well.

We enjoyed the food very much but the noise level was so high that we could hardly hear each other across the table, unnecessary music playing increased the volume. We will not return here on a Saturday evening, perhaps it is quieter on weekdays?

Dined in the separate restaurant area, and tried the hake goujons and the rump steak, both were excellent. The service was great too and the food arrived very quickly too.

Really lovely evening. Great food, service and atmosphere. The only thing was that it was very stuffy and warm in the restaurant because it was so busy but we managed to open the window a tiny bit. Apart from that.. perfect. 😊

Great welcome and a good size table for 6 people to eat in comfort. Nice amount of space between the tables, good atmosphere, but strangely very noisy despite the restaurant not being that big. Quick, efficient service. Great, tasty food. Don't be put off by the pretentious description of the dishes on the menu, they are very tasty and nicely presented. Good value given the quality and averaged about £25 per head for 2 course with wine.

Great atmosphere and food beyond expectations. Great evening. Sharing starter was easily enough for two people and 2 well proportioned mains (amazing lamb). Well priced and nice service.
