Food was absolutely exceptional; lovely ambience; however having travelled all over the world my wife and I had a unique poor experience in being asked to change table after having chosen our meal because the table was wanted for other diners.

Having sorted a table for 10 before the lunch, we were settled into a good table away from others at the rear of the restaurant. We had to wait maybe an hour for our starters but we’re enjoying ourselves with drinks. The starters were tasty and the main courses all enjoyed. The Vegan offering was odd as our one vegan thought her meal had pork in it. The staff consistently denied it and said mushrooms became like meat in the recipe. We accepted this as didn’t want a “situation”. The cost was reasonable and we had a memorable reunion overall fine.
