"Friends took us here on Saturday night for the first time, they had been several times before. First time for us. We were a bit early, about 6.15pm. Not a problem, got taken upstairs to our table. Quite well laid out, very spacious. The waitress we got was fantastic, I can’t recall her name, young blonde lady with glasses, she just couldn’t of been any better, she is a credit to that restaurant. Such a polite, professional, funny, charismatic young lady. Really good menu, I had squid for starters, I was expecting a few rings as usual in most places, but you got a set of tentacles which I prefer over rings, and good thick rings with a lemon mayo. Absolutely delicious. I chose the ‘cor blimey’ pizza which was spicy melting Italian sausage and chilli. Hands down the best pizza I have had in this country, and I am quite picky when it comes to pizza. I did get to sample friends pizza, goats cheese and red onion, which was delicious, I can’t remember what the other two were. The mix of that quality of food with the excellent service was so refreshing. Really good atmosphere due to the staff. I’m sure all the other staff were equally good, I can only comment on the one we had. She also shared the story of the owners journey which was very interesting. Great experience all round really. It was also very refreshing as a person with full neck tattoos not to be stared at or treat differently by staff, as is often the case with visiting restaurants. I would like to thank the owner and the waitress for a great night . It is often very easy to leave very harsh and critical reviews, sometimes unfairly. I think it is as equally important to give praise in as much detail. I will definitely be a regular from now on here, and would highly recommend it to anyone. I couldn’t fault anything about the whole experience. Oh, nearly forgot to mention the chips. Try the stable hearth secret ingredient home made chips !!!!!!"
