    Food was delicious but portions were a little small. We would have preferred larger portions as it was so good. Brownies could have been warm

    The food was basic. My soup was bland no flavour whatsoever. The chicken main was ok but the whiskey sauce was like raw whiskey and the cream sauce watery. Neither had been reduced down.
