    Was recommended to visit by a friend. The chair was full of crumb dirty marks when I arrived table has bits on it so was disappointed with the cleanliness. The servicing staff were friendly but not very knowledgeable on the menu and could don’t smarten up their appearance and at least iron their clothes. This might seem fussy but if front of house standards aren’t great it makes me wonder what the kitchen is like . Can’t fault the food it was all good quality fresh and tasty. Was nice for lunch but wouldn’t go back for a social occasion again.

    Excellent, as always. We had the flat iron chicken with peppercorn sauce and twice cooked chips this time. Delicious.

    Lovely food, good selection of beers and wines, good service in a pleasant environment. Can be a little noisy at times, but so can most places.
