We chose the two courses for £13.00 which was amazing value, kids had Hunters chicken …. Said it was delicious. My husband had burger which he was raving about. I had mushroom & tarragon pudding (it was tasty but was a pie not a pudding & sadly did not come with new potatoes as advertised but instant mash). It was nicely presented & good value. Wouldn’t have wanted to have paid full price for mine.
