Dave and his staff are extremely accommodating to all guests. Like a country pub in the middle of a bustling city. Customer service is second to none couldn’t recommend any more if I tried. They even have a kids menu complete with a colouring in to cater for the kiddies!

The entire menu can not be faulted. The scotch fillet needed no steak knife to cut it. The steak tartare was one of the best I’ve had locally. The burrata simply sensational.
