    As usual, the food was excellent but our enjoyment was impacted by having been placed at a table next to a screaming child . We should never have been placed there and the staff moved us immediately on demand . The service was excellent and we will definitely eat at the Duke William again , hopefully in more calm surroundings !

    The most fabulous Sunday lunch. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Lovely setting, friendly staff and great menu. The weather meant we wasn’t able to test out the play area but what a view out back! Looking forward to our next visit.

    Always a relaxing & pleasant place to have lunch. Adam & staff looked after us very well. Sean was very helpful, both he and Lily were pleasant & polite. Adam always goes the extra mile to ensure that his customers are happy! They have a new range of summer fizz that is very refreshing!

    Very disappointed in going there, poor meue all right for someone who like fish ,but for someone who can't it fish nothing of a choice for them, considering there was a 10% charge it was not value for money. Won't be going again.
