    Had a voucher to use for my 40th birthday and was really looking forward to it but left really disappointed. Staff were lovely, drinks were fine but we got the Sunday roast and it really wasn't what we expected. Very very pink beef even though I said OK with pink but not too pink, no stuffing left so offered us cauliflower cheese instead which they then tried to charge us for but dod remove it from bill when we said, potatoes honestly seemed like frozen ones and just weren't nice at all and the cabbage was very soggy/limp. Just over all not what I expected from here so won't be returning unfortunately. Staff were really nice though.

    Sunday Roast outstanding and well worth £27. Stuffing and cauliflower cheese are extra but big enough to share between 3-4 people. Service was rather slow, particularly for the pre meal drinks but otherwise staff really pleasant. We will be back

    My wife and her mother had the Roast beef dinner which was disappointing, roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings were over cooked. I had the burger which was lukewarm. When we asked for the bill we mentioned this be the waiter made no comment, simply walked away for the card machine. I would have made a stronger complaint but didn’t want to embarrass my mother in law on her birthday. Food didn’t measure up to the prices, afraid I won’t be returning.

    Really nice experience. Food was lovely and good value for how good it was! Waiter was attentive, always filling up our water. Overall a lovely experience. We went on a Saturday evening so was very busy and a little loud but I can imagine earlier on in the week this would be different. Still didn’t change the fact the food was amazing.

    Overall was good. They had run out of a few starters and steak options early on, which we were told happens regularly at the weekend. Steaks were overcooked, some things were very tasty others a little bland. For the prices they charge you would expect a lot better
