Moved here just before lockdown and had two amazing takeaways. We weren’t disappointed with the restaurant: felt COVID secure yet nothing lost from atmosphere or service. We will definitely go back.

Superfluous greeter spent time in front of clients cleaning and spraying partitions. Not genuinely welcoming. Not a great experience. We won’t be going again

The food was lovely, but after the main course, we were rushed to finish. The waiter keep asking If we had finished as he wanted to cash up, I was bit annoyed as we had bought a guest .... the waiter also started closing up,even closing the blinds while we were still there, very poor customer service.

Thoroughly enjoyed our first visit on a very wet and windy night which sadly meant a number of bookings had cancelled so it was a little quiet but Ben and the staff were attentive and service and knowledge of the food and wine was excellent. The quality and presentation of the food was first class - definitely worth a visit.
