    The best roast. We had the beef roast and the vegan one. Both great. Vegan gravy goes well with the beef. Staff were very friendly and super accommodating.

    Good food and great service. A service charge is added automatically but you are asked if you want it removed. I was with my partner where we spent £101 on 5 cocktails 2 mains and 2 sides which I guess is ok these days. We had the table for 90 minutes which was just about enough time to be relaxed.

    Had a great experience from start to finish. Warm welcome on arrival the the waitress was very helpful explaining the menu to make sure we didn’t order more food than we can eat. All staff very attentive throughout and the food was outstanding. Would highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely head back soon. Even when asking to pay the bill we did not have to wait long to get it and pay it. Great work from all the staff you really made it an enjoyable experience.
