"a difficult review when the restaurant tried to provide the service that I am sure they wanted. a busy Saturday midday in December, all the tables were tightly packed, there were no ceiling ventilation or were all windows open to provide covid ventilation protection. the menu is large with a lot of choice. we went for a selection of starters to share under the family. most were very small dishes, the flower flowers bites consisted only small floccules. I think that this was too expensive for everyone. for the net I divided half a steak/ale cake and crispy chili bark. the bark in the torte was chewing and blande, the chips rode in a customs of their life, and the muddy peas were simply crushed, cultivated garden. the chili beef on the other side was sensational, fully spiced, steaming hot and loads of it, with rice and crack. the dishes could no longer differ in quality and taste. similar mixed results were reported from the rest of the table. I appreciate that covid has hit local food companies hard and they are still trying to get their pre-pandemic service. there were many guests who were fed and the kitchen struggled to supply consistency; our main dishes were delivered in intervals, so we did not eat together and it took to put the net on the table. as mentioned it was brushed, but a service fee was added to the bill. I think this is a bad service, even if one takes into account the difficulties of the covid. I hope that this feedback will be taken and traded so that we can see an improvement when we visit next."

"I have been on Tripadvisor for many years..due to covid and also very good friends of us who have serious health problems that we have hidden with regular, just a few times in the month now. because covid, clear, much has changed, both with customer setting and the necessity for the business in general to watch profit margin.sometimes run a very fine line, between volume and quality. as retired corporate regional manger that deals with corporates, I might be a little more qualified than the average, now often moaning and complaining client, who could not really run in all honesty the proverb in the brewery! I visited this place with my wife and 6 friends. a couple of old school friends on holiday from Australia and had an absolutely delightful evening, I had the most delicious fish and chips with us all, due to our late arrival..Citizen home had accidentally a 6 foot high schorn stone, part in our roof..so a good excuse too late!. all had main courses, without complaining, only lob, with a few with candy.2 flake wein and about 4 pints camp.plus a attentive and efficient waitress, without obtrusiw, along with brilliant companies, made for a great night. it is true to say above general critique commentary that menus have been trimmed..and to comment that in the rule this beautiful and quantum location is absolutely packed in the rule that on Wednesday, the 30th mai, when we visited, was sparsely populated.If they moan about it, then hardly the financial of the place.just the situation obviously post burden support them events like this or we will certainly lose them to mcdonalds type restaurants ughh. they can dinate fairly cheaply and have a great night with friends, as we, if they eat meaningfully, with a reasonable amount of alcohol. and enjoy the fayre such companies as this offer to the public. would certainly re-enter..staff and venue, for a good pub type evening, first class. this is a very attractive and beautiful old place where you can dine with friends. No.not in conjunction with the administration of anyone who manage this business.just a realistic customer, thankful for the employees, generally on the minimum wage, happy to support customers with a big night!"
