    We had the steak, was perfectly cooked for our taste. Nice atmosphere, great location and our waitress looked after us really well. It was an Anniversary meal and the chef sent out 4 individual treats on a platter with Happy Anniversary written in white chocolate which was a lovely touch. Couldn't fault it had a lovely evening and meal ☺️

    It was ok wine list is out of date very disappointing & food was just ok. We came because dog friendly staff not interested in our dog. Unfortunately dog bowl was spilt with lots of water. Asked to clear up waiter made very small effort & left blue roll so I cleaned it all up. Unfortunately as I said disappointing not sure if will be back.
