The food was very good although they could have been a little more generous with the crepe brûlée. Service was excellent and the layout was nicely spaced out.

We came here for the first time for “Valentines day” evening meal, we ordered food from the main menu and and was very happy with our choices and the quality of the food served. It also was served “hot” which was very good. The service was attentive but not too much, thanks We will return and try something different next time. Thanks Mark x

Came for Sunday lunch with my wife Good service - the blonde waitress was very efficient which was good I has the roast lamb which was nice but the wife had the 1/2 a chicken which was primarily bone and not particularly enjoyable The restaurant was very very noisy both inside it and from the guys watching football in the attached pub which was not ideal So in summary - good service, average nice food but a noisy environment which let it down
