Our first visit was fantastic husband had escargots I.had garic prawns and our son had whitebait. We all had something from the specials board, seabass, hake espagnol and steak hashir. The food was excellent as was the service
The reason why I am only giving it 4 stars is because we chose from the general menu on our second visit, starters baked brie, crab thermidor and calamari and for mains we had steak and kidney pudding, steak and ale pie and i had scampi. It was very average and we were also sat next to a group of people who seemed intent on us hearing their conversations, this spoiled the experience for me and I was dissappointed with the food, however I wont give up with this place and intend to return and hopefully make better menu choices and sit in a better place.next time
Staff were polite and friendly.
The pub itself is warm and welcoming with a pleasant ambiance. A nice blend of modern and older public house.
The staff were attentive and happy to explain or answer any questions on the menu and provided a prompt, unfussed service at the speed we wanted.
The food arrived without undue delay and pipping hot (just the way I like it). The food was excellent and not a crumb was left.
I really can't recommend this location as somewhere to consider if you are looking for an enjoyable, relaxing meal.
The food was outstanding, so much choice and variation and extremely yummy.
Atmosphere was very relaxing we can't wait to return. Thanks for a wonderful evening 😊
