We had a lovely meal and a great time. The Sunday roast was outstanding, the beef was pink and delicious, the roasties, gravy, veg all excellent and spectacularly sized Yorkshire pudding. Our server Maddie was wonderful and looked after us so well. Would 100% recommend.

Great food and great service. Place is all done up nice for Christmas. We’d gone on the day of a rugby match so was really loud and busy and was hard to manoeuvre about with two octogenarians in tow. BUT, that was on us, we didn’t know about the game, and the food and service more than made up for it and we’ll definitely be back.

Excellent, as always. It was the first time for one member of our party and she was very impressed. The Smiddy doesn’t disappoint when we want to eat out locally.
