    6 of us ate at Crane Tap for a birthday celebration. Would really recommend. Matthew, the server, went above and beyond from the moment we arrived. He added a real personal touch and really added to the whole occasion.

    We ate early so the restaurant was very quiet. The food quality was excellent but the portions were huge! Some of us find being presented with such large prtions off-putting - not all of us are rugby players with massive appetites! A "doggy bag" was offered and accepted though so no food was wasted.

    Possibly the best pre match venue I have ever been to. The Crane Tap mixes fabulous food and good local beer at a very good price. Service from Natalja and her team is always amazing. We should go there on days outside of tbe Quins fixtures!!!

    Great food and lovely staff - they do have sports TVs but these do not interfere with the restaurant.
