"I want to make this review purely because of how amazing the staff are and how well they handled an unfortunate human error. I came for dinner with my family for my sister's birthday and for my dad's 60th birthday, we ordered two vegan burgers and two meat burgers. When the food arrived I had had two bites of my vegan burger and realised it had bacon jam on it. I wasn't sure if they had a vegan version of the bacan jam so I asked our server and she said she'd go and check. About 10 minutes later we were told that the chef had made an error and put bacon jam on the two vegan burgers. Of course this wasn't very pleasant to hear, but the staff handled it perfectly. They immediately admitted fault, profusely apologised, told us they'd remove the dishes from our bill, said they'd add an extra 10% off our bill, and offered a free glass of prosecco for my dad and sister's birthdays. This was all offered to us from the get go, we didn't have to argue any case or ask for any extras, it was their way of apologising to us. When our new burgers came out, they were lovely. I've been vegan for 8.5 years, these errors have happened a good few times, but this is the best it's ever been handled. So I just want to say a massive, heartfelt thank you to the staff who served us yesterday for being so lovely. I forgot to ask for any names, so any person who served table Franklin at 5.45pm yesterday deserves some recognition and appreciation. It was a really hot Friday evening and it was busy, but they still took time to make sure we were okay and that we were looked after. THANK YOU!!"

"After reviewing the menus to make sure they could accommodate the fact I cannot have dairy and gluten. They have a fair large GF menu which i was pleased about! I made them aware of my intolerances when we got there (and at the booking ordered the new potatoes (dairy free and the chicken, bacon and avocado salad minus the parmesan (fairly standard and all the other restaurants would find that an easy change! A few minutes later I get presented a vegan menu and told I cannot have anything on the gluten free menu I must have vegan. I questioned the burger to see if it was GF to be told the bun would be, I said normally a lot of vegan burgers have gluten in but this one would be OK? To then be told why not have the warm harissa baked squash salad with cider mustard leeks, spinach, rocket, pomegranate salsa, lemon garlic tahini dressing, tamari toasted seeds. After feeling a bit in shock I just agreed because I felt pressured into making a decision (although she was very nice and did try! The potatoes came and I got a grand total of 4 small potatoes with no garlic in sight, the salad though was pitiful, a handful of spinach, 4 thin slices of butternut squash, next to no dressing, no salad, no toasted seeds and it was cold! When the waitress came back I did said I was disappointed I came to have meat and never been told I couldn't and that I have to have a vegan meal because everything is pre-made and that the meal it's self was not that great and I was going to be very hungry afterwards. She said that she is sorry but everything is pre-made and that's that (she was nicer about it unfortunately we had plans afterwards so couldn't stop off somewhere to get anything else to eat I we aren't from the area so didn't know of any takeaways safe to use later in the evening. So 4.30am waking up starving really isn't great. Hugely disappointed that they can only accommodate you if you are gluten free but if you are dairy free you must eat from the vegan menu (I don't have an issue with vegan meals but it's not what I wanted! And it being nearly £70 out of our pocket for a meal for 2 that left you hungry. Never again."
