    We had a lovely roast dinner but unfortunately it was only just warm when it was delivered to our table so it very quuickly got cold. One of our party had a fish dinner which she loved!

    Fantastic food in the heart of Dover! Also doubles as a great spot to watch an England rugby match!

    Burns night dinner was awesome. The food was excellent, our waiter Dan was very friendly and attentive. Music was nice. I have also tried their Sunday roast on another occasion and enjoyed it thoroughly
