Good service, good choice of food and drink combined with reasonable price made this a happy family event. It was easy to book and to park.

On the whole good, but did feel the person who took our drinks order was somewhat judgemental. We were 5 adults and 2 small children, after ordering six non-alcoholic drinks (4 adults were drivers) the person whose birthday it was ordered a beer (he was not driving) to which we got the remark “at last someone’s ordered a proper drink” whilst being responsible drinkers you do not want to feel you should be ordering alcohol - perhaps he was on commission

We had a delicious meal. Two of us chose ham and eggs with the best chips so far this year. The pie and mash were also excellent. only reason not a 5 star review was the fourth person ordered a chicken salad which was delicious but a small portion. Overall a great visit as always.

It was a good table friendly service. Food was good quality and presented very well. The meal didn’t get to the table very quickly and I noticed this...hence not a 6.

Lovely meal with friendly and attentive staff. There were only 4 or 5 other tables eating but we felt the wait for food was noticeably long. This is the second time we've waited a long time. Last time we went we waited an hour and a half and they admitted they had mislaid the order and/or the chef hadn't seen. Luckily the food was good and evening wasn't spoilt on either occasion. Needs mentioning though.

Service was excellent, but the Greek salad was very disappointing. £7.00 for a very small bowl of iceburg lettuce, a few chopped tomatoes and very little feta, did not represent good value for money. For nearly the same price I could have had the large beef baguette, that came with a side salad and fries ! It really didn't make sense and was a bit of a rip off really. Disappointing !

A lot of the vegetarian menu items were not available. One of us came as specially for the mushroom Wellington but when we were told it wasn't avaliable we ordered another dish that you only had one avaliable and two of us has ordered it. Then when we choose another dish it was not enjoyable.

The food was very good as always. This time, however, the service was very slow. It may have been due to there being very few waiting staff and only one chef

atmosphere lovely and friendly, waiting staff very helpful and happy to answer or find the answer to any food queries. Food was delicious, nice and hot, six in our party and everyone mentioned how lovely their meal was and that was for all courses. Only tiny glitch was the long wait from starter to main but the dessert arrived within a reasonable time. However the food was obviously freshly made would definatly go again, excellent value for money but make sure you book!!

The menu offers a wide range of appetising offerings. The food was well prepared, cooked and presented. The service was very good, too. Sadly we were too full to sample the desserts!
