    Great little pub/ restaurant with character and atmosphere. Food (we shared a selection of the smaller plates) was delicious and very reasonably priced. Happy hour cocktails were also great.

    Really good experience. I will say, turn around times on the table were quite short but also understandable as how busy it must be on a Sunday but when waiting for food to come out and the possibility of getting dessert, I would probably extend bookings by 30 mins. Also there was a double booking issue that nearly had us placed in the bar area, when specifically asked for restaurant. The host/manager sorted that for us promptly though - thank you so much. Food was amazing and good value for money. Desserts were great too! Hats off to the chefs and the front of house, that’s a busy shift! Will come back again!

    Fantastic food and great service. I'd advise a seat at the bar or beer garden as it can be very noisy in the restaurant if there's a large group.

    When you combine good food with good service, it’s a winning combination. Combine the two elements with a great pub ambience that is modern and welcoming, the feeling is one of relaxed satisfaction.
