Lovely birthday lunch on my actual birthday. The food as always was a delight and the waitress was friendly. I had dep fried whitebait and a salad and my partner had prawn cocktail as our starters. I had a sirloin steak with cauliflower cheese, chunk chips and onion rings, whilst Derek had a burger. One word of warning the plates were heaped with food and it was hot! Delicious! We shall be back again twice in July, onnce for my church anniversary meal and then a family get together for our 25th. anniversary.

Highly recommend the Beef Wellington, the whisky mushroom sauce is superb, and so nice to have such a wonderful selection of veg on the plate including broccoli, cauliflower cheese, baby parsnip, carrots, new potatoes, roasted tomato and rocket. Desserts were excellent and good value and the Australian Malbec was delicious.

This visit was for my civil.partner's birthday. As usual we received a warm welcome. The menu had changed as there were no longer of fixed price 3 course or 3 course meals. However, that meant a much wider choice, which was great. The starters, soup and prawn cocktail were deliciousI chose a bew item for my main a sea food pie which was full of calamari, prawns and class and had a lovely cheese and mashed potato topping. We both chose apple pie and ice cream to finish. The one thing we like about this restaurant is that you are never rushed and although for some the service might be slow, we prefer to enjoy our meal and not be constantly hasseled to finish our meal. It is not cheap (we paid £100 including tip and wine) but we'll worth it.

Food was good as usual, but now if your bill is over £100, now they have decided to add a 10% service charge, which I felt was quite presumptuous. We always leave a tip, but it felt like we were being told to leave a tip.

The starter of prawn cocktail was lovely. However the carvery was very disappointing. The turkey was dry and over cooked. The initial pork that was served up to us wasn't cooked, I don't mean rare, I mean raw!! (That joint was removed after we pointed out that it couldn't be eaten) The beef was ok, and pigs in blankets were tasty. We had a range of deserts. Some were OK, however the cherry crumble was very soggy. The panacotta was not set and disappointing, the accompanying biscuit was so stale it was inedible. The service was quite good and staff polite. We won't be going back.

Everything great but the portion of ham with the ham ,egg and and chips was embarrassingly meagre. It was ONE razor thin slice which was so thin you couldn't even taste it. So tight fisted in my opinion, considering it was £13. I didn't complain at the time as I didn't want to spoil the occasion and the waitress was so lovely. For this reason I will never come back and will not recommend the place. Very unnecessarily stingy and greedy of the management to pass this off as a portion. Such a shame as the broccoli and stilton soup was divine and so was the dark chocolate Belgian tart.
