The service and food is lovely, however, there are so many flies in there, sitting by a window where the window frame is a bit rotten and a massive wood lice crawls out! Very off putting, would recommend sitting away from a window!

Probably one of the worst Sunday lunch dinners we have ever had, it took over half an hour for even someone came over to take a drinks order, then about another 40 minutes to finally take our food orders, when it finally arrived the food was awful, the beef was as tough as old boot and all the vegetables were undercooked and hard, we had been here in the past and the food was amazing just goes to show how quickly a place can go down hill rapidly with the wrong management and chef! Although I did feel very sorry for the girls who were waitressing as they are not to blame yet we’re continuously complained to buy customers on how bad the food was! Such a shame as this was a family birthday lunchtime dinner for us that we were all looking forward to and was ruined. We will not be returning again in a hurry unless they find better staff! Again such a shame as this place used to be good.
