"We have driven past here quite a few times but never been in so we decided to give it a try. It was a Tuesday night but there was quite a few people in.I had the prawns and chorizo to start with and my partner had the soup, both dishes were nice. I then had the duck and my partner had the sea bass. The sea bass portion was quite stingy for the price that they charge. The duck dish was nice, the duck was slightly overdone but that’s just my personal preference. I then had the cheesecake but I had to send it back, it was tasteless and really bland. We both had a nice evening but wouldn’t come again, the food was tasty enough but just okay and doesn’t warrant the prices that they charge."

Amazing place. Service is excellent. Food is delicious. Vibe is perfect. Save some room for dessert, it would be a crime to leave without one.

Reunion dinner. Food was very good. A mixture of orders for eight people but we were all served together. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. It is slightly overpriced and the 10% service charge is annoying I much prefer to leave the staff a tip but overall, a very pleasant experience.

great eating we had only two appetizers each and sides, great cappuccino I had two, wife enjoyed their non-alcoholic gin, if right.) amazing plan from above, beautiful spaces, served by two different friendly waiters. excellent prices for this quality presentation of food. will definitely return.

Eating here is really nice. it is pub food, but more of a chic style. the place belongs to anotherrew nutter, who is a well-known cook in the opposite, so that they know the quality of the place. family loves to go here for special meals as tasty bites. I can get you some bob back, but it's worth a visit. they can go for only drinks below and it is late open (the open hours on the Google list do not go) View menu

The service was ok but the food was really disappointing. They clearly wanted us to order the festive menu but we chose from the a la carte. Salt cod was a disgusting mush, the beetroot was pickled and not fresh! The main complaint was two cold duck dishes served and the chicken was on herby mash without any herbs. Pouring rocket on top of a dish does nothing to improve it! We complained about the cold duck and were not charged but expected to be offered an alternative or the chef to apologise but this didn’t happen. It spoilt my partner’s birthday as he went home hungry and disappointed. We won’t be returning unless things improve.

service was great, eating was on point and torts hot! presentation is beautiful and not too much, starter was salmon fishcake and it was very tasty full of taste and worked with the tomatensalsa. on Sunday the reef was served again brilliant, not too much either portion size was straight enough, carrots and swedes maic was beautiful, although I am not a fan of sweden and the double roasted roasted kartoffels were beautiful and crisp and fluffy inside to not mention the yorkshire pudding was also light and crispy and very tasty. would be highly recommended to go and try. not to mention seating was good, very nice inside, very clean and also on the Covid restriction

"So firstly I want to thank the waiting staff and the host, they were superb and very attentive. What did let the experience down of our festive Christmas 3 course lunch, was sadly the food at £20.50 per person it does represent good value for money however as you can see the presentation and quality of the food served in our opinion was woeful. The Prawn cocktail starter was just terrible with zero thought or care given to the items on the plate. Our Main course was brought out and we had ordered 3 Turkey Christmas lunches but we got 3 portions of Salmon ! So that had to be sent back, when the correct food was eventually brought out it was effectively ruined by the over seasoned and way too salty Beef yes Beef gravy that was liberally doused all over the food. Put the gravy into a gravy jug and let your customers decide how much if any gravy they want. Now don't get me wrong as a Rochdale lad I absolutely love gravy but this was even for me, way too salty and clearly made with beef stock. When this was pointed out to the server she did send feedback to the kitchen but they swore blind it was turkey gravy . Our desserts of Christmas pudding were very nice and in fact this was the highlight of the whole meal. I would have gladly paid more for this supposedly special meal and we expected more from this establishment. If you are attending on Christmas Day for the same menu that is priced at £105 per person I wish you the best of luck !"
