"We often come here for Sunday carvery which is very good so thought we would try an evening meal for my Mum's birthday. I am afraid the overall service let down the whole experience. When we arrived, instead of being taken to our table by the waitress, she just pointed and said you are at that table over there. After being to a busy bar area to get our drinks we found out that the 2 waitress standing around did not take orders so we had to go back to the busy bar again and wait to give our food orders. When the food came it was very good, especially my seafood platter. Everyone thought the food was good except for my Mum who had gone for one of the specials. It was so poor especially for being a special. She had one tiny piece of fish with no sauce, 4-5 very small new potato's, a few carrots and a few bits of broccoli. All the veg was hard and there was not enough to satisfy even a person with the smallest appetite. We told the waitress about the hard veg but she just said oh right and there was no apology. When we spoke to the chap at the bar and said why don't the waitress take the orders he said he liked people to come to the bar so the staff could meet them. We all felt this was a lame reason and probably did not trust the teenage waitresses to take the orders. It is a real shame as the place is lovely and the food generally is pretty good but is missing a professional touch. We said we would not return for an evening meal but just stick to the Sunday Carvery."

"Everything about this restaurant was great from start to finish. Has soon as we arrived at the restaurant even though our table was booked for 7pm we were seated straight away. The restaurant wasn't particularly busy for a Saturday night but that wasn't a problem as it felt like we had the whole restaurant to ourselves. The waiter service was excellent you wasn't waiting a long time for your food and drinks but obviously if the restaurant was quite busy then it may have been different. We ordered our drinks to begin with the cocktails are nice. Then we ordered our starters and the mains all at the same time. Not one of us was disappointed at all, the food was great. The potato skins were really nice and the chicken wings. When the main course came the same again really nice food. I had the ribeye steak with potato wedges and peppercorn sauce. The steak was quite a reasonable size and the peppercorn sauce was really tasty with a bit of a kick to it. The food portions for both the starters and the mains were really good. I couldn't eat all of my main as it was quite filling. So overall I would recommend this restaurant you won't be disappointed. The service is great not one thing I could moan about. The food isn't expensive the prices are very reasonable. My advice would be to book a table just in case. The restaurant wasn't busy when we went but you don't want to just turn up and be disappointed if the restaurant is packed as you will miss out on some fantastic food. We will definitely return at some point for some more great food."
