Went for Sunday lunch with high expectations- the starters were good, but the flat iron steak was tough and had to ask for steak knife to cut and really had to chew, plus roast potatoes were only just warm - so main course very disappointing - same for my wife, and bearing in mind we went for a Sunday lunch ( classic pub style ?) ,it did not deliver on the expectations - although my daughters fish was great. The lunch is billed as £20 for two courses but they charge per item and then discount on the bill- very confusing and did not seem to be a good deal on some combinations. Service was generally fine, although we had to search for help at times even though only small restaurant. It was busy , so the locals must think OK, but I do not think we would go back .

Starter and dessert excellent. Sunday Roast itself miles below their usual high standards which was a shame. Service as normal was really good however so no drama.

Excellent food and service - beautifully presented plates, and meals like a very high quality/Michelin restaurant. Empty when we arrived about 7pm but soon filled up.

Everyone has his own 'bad days', and restaurants are not immune. This time we were not satisfied with the food at all. I hope this was a temporary défaillance. The Scotch egg was good, the duck confit so hard that was challenging to cut, the dessert was ok. One side note about the catch of the day: good but the portion was small for the price. That was the comment of one of the diners. So I hope that was only an unfortunate day.

Food was good but service is very slow. Gave up waiting for them to take our dessert order and just paid and left. Nice staff but feels lacking in management.
