    Service pre-Booking with Nicole was timely, kind and friendly…. We Loved the space, had a drink sat by the Fire before moving to our table… The young lad working that day was Brilliant and really just willing to go the extra mile. We had a Fabulous Roast, we wanted to add on Cauliflower cheese but in all honestly the set veg were fantastic…. Can not recommend highly enough. Thank you team Host

    Lovely meal. My only curiosity was the waitress outfits. I don’t understand why the females were required to wear leather basques and to whose benefit that was? Very odd in 2025

    Nice venue with vegan options which can be hard to find so appreciate the choice. Have been coming here for a few years since the venue opened.
