We booked a table for 7pm arrived promptly were seated and had to ask twice to place a drinks order over the next twenty minutes. Had to ask how the drinks were doing after 15 minutes and after server checked we were told the drinks orders were 'backed up' and they would come when they come. It felt as if this was going to be a slow slow process so we decided to leave. Found drinks and food food elsewhere. This was a disappointing experience.

I had the full Scottish breakfast, my partner had the croll with 3 fillings and children had the French toast. All were very yummy. Child particularly love the French toast as it was cinnamon French toast with banana and Nutella. Would love the pancakes to come back though! Customer service was flawless as the waiter was attentive but not intrusive and definitely service with a smile.
