We weren’t asked if we could get our coats hung up. We waited ages to place our order. We couldn’t change menu to have appetisers from a la carte instead of starters from the xmas menu. We were overcharged by £100!

We enjoyed our lunch today, which was from the 2 for 1 lunch menu. Food was very tasty and the coffee was also really good. Overall service and surroundings were cosy and comfortable with very friendly efficient staff. The large car park is free and its a handy location if visiting the Etches Collection Museum.
