    Really lovely evening, we were looked after very well and the food was super. We first visited the week it reopened and I’d say the food was even better this time. Good steak, delicious pork belly and great fish and chips. I had a Mediterranean salad with salmon which was delicious ( only niggle was the olives still have the stones in ) Good choice of food on the menu too. We will definitely be returning.

    If we had known with a dog you had to sit in the bar we would have thought again as we were either offered a table in front of the bar, the bar area or a sofa chair we could not sit on to eat a roast. Previously we would have sat in the conservatory with a dog. Sitting in the bar meant we got no table service and had to queue every time we wanted anything behind lots of people just wanting drinks. We had the same when we wanted a pudding menu and gave up and the same for a second drinks order. My daughters meat also wasn’t good it was all fatty and had to be changed.

    Our first visit back since the new owners have taken over, we were greeted warmly and shown to our table. We already had drinks so the waitress asked what size lunch we wanted and we were handed casino chips with letters on lol. The food was absolutely beautiful lots of selection of veg and 3 types of meat. The actual bar and restaurant is spotless and quirky. We will definitely be back.

    We had the carvery. The food was great, a good choice of vegetables and the meat (beef in our case) was just the right amount of pink. Desserts were tasty too. Service was super friendly and efficient. The new decor is much brighter than before and I loved the gold bench seats.
