    Highly recommended, Sunday roast was great and staff very attentive. We felt safe in regards to Covid 19 with all precaution being enforced. We will return again....when we can. There was also a great duo playing who's name we didn't get.

    Everything was lovely until some customers went to sit outside and the door was left open, despite requests to the staff from other tables to close the door, the staff insisted it had to be left open, even when 2 tables had to put on their coats to keep the chill off and 2 tables moved to another area away from the draught. We cut short our stay and went to a warmer venue for a night cap
