Coal is not the stand out "wow that was incredible" experience since ownership changed hands, but you will get a good, tasty meal. Staff service is still as good as ever, happy to say.

Friendly attentive service on a relatively quiet Tuesday night. Every thing we ordered was tasty. Wasn’t cheap but not crazy expensive either, good quality food at a price to match. Portions of mains were good sizes and value for money. Would go back.
