    We have a get together with friends every Christnas and have our meal at the Rock and Fountain. The food is always excellent as is the service. Nothing is ever too much bother and we are always last to leave but the staff don't pressurise us into leaving even though I expect they want to go home. I woukd recommend this venue to everyone.
