After initial start of bad service, seated but no menus given or drinks taken for 10 minutes it picked up once we made ourselves know and both food and service were outstanding. Cucumber starter of was really one of the nicest refreshing dishes tasted in awhile. Sunday roasts were great and just that extra bit special in taste.

We had a great evening despite some hiccups! WHY is there only ONE drinks menu (note, not the wine list) and why do you have a junior serving drinks??? Had to remind the staff 3 times about bringing the glasses of champagne I had pre-ordered and paid for...sloppy! the quality remains the same but of course success has meant price hikes and portion reductions......however I would certainly visit again.

Excellent gastropub with a stylish feel. Can be busy which stretches the staff but the setting makes up for it.
