"Visited for the first time today at Lunchtime, dining companion had been some time ago. Plenty of available tables on arrival, on entry the background music stood out, it was far too loud, the young waitress showed us to a table. Instantly we realised we had a speaker directly above us couldn 't hear our own voices,so asked if we could move further away. Our conversation still had to compete with the music which was frustrating...I would suspect the majority of diners like to communicate over their meal. A good varied menu choice, though only having mains, it did seem to take some time considering your pub wasn 't busy. The food was hot (plates too and very tasty, my dining companion finished his meal first, the waitress approached the table asked for second time was all OK took his plate.I was still finishing my meal. That waitress should have come back when both had finished eating, they should always wait until the party have all finished. There is nothing worse than a person being left eating plates being removed. Though 'silver service ' hardly exists in eating establishments these days,this is a definite no,no, hence the 3 stars.Would hope this is fedback to all staff."
