Brilliant visit again today. Had the Sunday sharing board and it was cooked perfectly. Service was amazing (Thank you Kacey) from start to finish with nothing being an issue. Food was amazing 😍 and Kacey was amazing with little Chase, even bringing his prized cuddly friend out to the car for him when we left it behind 🤦🏻‍♂️ Thank you all involved, always a pleasure to dine here

The mushroom starter (2 portions) was served cold with a split cheese sauce. When we pointed this out to the staff we were told that he cheese had added with dish too cold and he would tell the chef . No refund was offered

The fillet steak was beautiful, but just a bland and over rich sauce. Over salted too.

Got the 2 course special and the only good part was the steak. Chicken starter was grey not white so couldnt eat it. The onion loaf on my main was soggy and undercooked but the steak was lovely.

So we went here Friday night for my partners birthday and first off we was greeted by Brandon who I believe was part of the management team and what a bloke he was warming welcome and extremely friendly! Showed us to our table and explained everything to us! From here the night got better and better! We were then greeted by our server for the night, who is called Dave from the card we got from paying the bill. then greeted by our server for the night who is called Dave from the card we got from paying the bill. Firstly what a team member you have here! Absolute gent of a man extremely polite and went above and beyond for the evening, Dave managed to sort out my partners steak as it was slightly over cooked for her preference but he saw it and straight away got a fresh one sorted and it was cooked to perfection! Some of the best customer care I’ve had for a long time! Outstanding service was always asked if we wanted more drinks fantastic night! Only negative comment from the evening was that it was a Friday evening and having people walk around in full tracksuits and caps was a little off putting especially with the tone of conversations groups of people where having maybe at a weekend implement some kind of dress code. Overall the evening was amazing will definitely be returning!!

Fantastic food, lovely atmosphere, server Lexi was absolutely lovely, very attentive and very knowledgeable. Only downside I would mention is the ladies toilets were not very clean and tidy.

The staff were very friendly, we were seated away from others in the restaurant which suited us. The food was brought promptly and was all cooked to a high standard and very tasty. My only complaint was the “thick cut” chips which we paid a £1 each extra for, I expected paying £40 for a meal you’d get triple cooked homemade chips but what was served were basically oven chips, bland dry chips that were clearly frozen from a packet
