    Was disappointed as some of the menu was not available so left with mainly pizza, burgers. Had we had known we wouldn't have gone. Ordered starters and main and it all came together. One of the meals they forgot so left waiting until i let them know, by that time everyone else had eaten. Although they were very apologetic and took it off the final bill.

    A bit disappointed as some of the options for mains was not available and was looking forward to their slow cooked lamb shank. Had the lamb quesadilla they were ok. The started were really nice . The service was brilliant. Noise levels were a bit too much.

    Really disappointing no mains available from the menu not told on entry and only told after ordering. Really poor service, person we dealt with not very attentive and poor communication between staff from the outset.

    No main meals available which we weren't told about until after we had ordered and received drinks and were trying to order food. If we had known earlier we might have gone elsewhere. Plus on blue light site says you can use your bluelight card for discount but staff and manager said no you can't.
