The restaurant and pub have a comfortable atmosphere with open fires and good decoration. The staff were friendly, chatty and attentive, but not overly so. The food was tasty and well presented but could have been hotter. However, we had a good time and would recommend it.

Food was pleasant and surroundings good. Staff were polite enough although I was disappointed that the waiter had obviously just been for a cigarette as you could smell the smoke from her clothes quite overpowering. The beef was the most tender I have had very nice

Our first visit to this restaurant and we were impressed. Very welcoming and helpful in recommending food choices. We had starters and mains, food was delicious and plentiful, no room for dessert! Throughout our meal the staff were attentive, warm and friendly. That’s the way to get returning customers! Thank you.

Absolutely disgusting.. As a family we attended for a 28th and 67th birthday... First appearance the bar was lovely.. layout was well done and modern...There were two members of staff to serve the bar and restaurant...we waited 2 1/2 hours for a starter... we were charged for wine we did not order...and when we decided to leave they brought the food out and said “we’ll its ready now...” his mannor was appalling but we decided to try the food and hopefully it would have been worth the wait... we were wrong... certainly not fresh and and the pasta dishes were very startchy which clearly were over cooked and had not been drained, a friend ordered the calamari, this was see through, tasteless and looked like it had been microwaved...very disappointed I would not rush back in a hurry...

We love coming to this restaurant. The staff are excellent, always going out of their way to make sure everyone is happy and enjoying their meal. The food is always lovely and it's great to have a choice of other things on Sundays rather than just Sunday dinner. We loved the log fire and the Christmas music and will definitely come back.

We had a wonderful time the food was exquisite we had the family with us which included our latest edition who is only 6 months old, she was unsettled when the main course arrived, the staff were marvellous offering to take care of her whilst my daughter-in-law ate then took her meal away and cooked a completely fresh one once the baby was sleeping what stars can’t waut to return for our Christmas Day Dinner 12/10 ⭐️

On a cold November evening we received a warm friendly welcome. A blazing fire and helpful staff shook off the chill. Great choice of food and wine served in a nice restaurant. The service was quick and unobtrusive, nice atmosphere. Good value for money and an enjoyable experience.

Nice place and food was mainly excellent (one of our two main courses was ok but a bit bland). Staff were really friendly but were a bit stretched as there were only two of them. Having said that, we didn't have to wait over long for anything. Overall, a very enjoyable meal at a reasonable price. We would return and recommend to anyone.

First visit here but have been to Birtley Tavistock Italia. greeted by friendly staff and served drinks promptly. Ate a starter and main course. Hot tasty potato skins with dip, followed by king prawn risotto; beautifully presented and tasted delicious. The house wine (red) was very pleasant. We were not hurried between the courses as in some places who need the table quickly. Staff were very chatty but not intrusive. Music also was 60s/70s which suited us but not too loud. Would recommend without a doubt.

Fast and friendly service; food was good quality and served in decent sized portions - we both left feeling very satisfied and will certainly return. We were very kindly given a post-meal aperitif of a shot of amaretto - a lovely gesture, but unfortunately, we could not indulge in as we were both driving.

This is an excellent Italian restaurant, with efficient and courteous staff. My wife maintains her pizza was one of the best she has experienced outside Italy and my starter of garlic king prawns and main of goulash (made with strips of fillet of beef) were both outstanding. Highly recommended.
