We had a starter we shared, jerk chicken Tacos which were really nice.
My Wife had Mussels, she really loved this, a good size portion. I chose the fish & chips. Not overly impressed, the portion size wasn't great, literally just fish & chips with a pea puree which I thought was quite pretentious. Wish I had the burger which was cheaper and bigger.
Free bottle of wine made up for it tho, was a Pinot which would have cost about £20. So for a meal coating £45 Inc wine I can't really complain but would not have been happy to pay in full £65, too expensive for what it is.
Having said that the service was very good, staff were attentive and busy. This place has recently been refurbished and looks nice but Guys, you need to consider reducing your prices for Locals to return regularly. Thanks.
Waiting staff were very friendly and helpful!
Highly recommend and would definitely come back.
On the table next to us, there was a couple who were being extraordinarily fussy and rude about their baked beans, including threatening the waiting staff with bad reviews. The waitress stayed polite and professional throughout, offering to help to try to resolve the problem despite their behaviour. Needless to say, the couple 'managed' to eat their 'below par' baked beans (which looked fine to me!!)
Fantastic staff, working hard on their bank holiday. Perhaps some customers should either stay at home to eat their baked beans, or be grateful that they're in a position to be eating a meal out on the bank holiday, rather than working.
