    We had a table for 9 for my mum's birthday (5 children 4 adults). They made the necessary changes to the 3 children's roasts as requested which was great. I had the butternut squash curry as had had it before and it did not disappoint. Roast dinners were all lovely, just my daughter found the beef to tough to eat and one adult found the broccoli to hard but overall the food was great. The service was a bit lacking. Overall very friendly and polite but didn't check if we needed drinks etc so felt like we were having to ask all the time for a drinks top up or anything extra that was needed e.g sauces, different cutlery, paying the bill. One waiter looked like he would rather be anywhere else other than there as he brought out our food. Just a little bit of a smile or to pretend to be a bit happier would have been nice. I think to get 5 stars from me the service would need to improve as it wasn't a full sitting and there were several members of staff
