"Food is of course amazing, tried hard not to compare with other Micheline star restaurants I ate before. The decor is too bright and cleache, we understand that we asked for substitutes and they kindly did provided for most part of the menu, I think that would have cost them more hence they didn't give us one dish, would have appreciated if they had substituted with another small dish or could have atleast given complementary water (water isn't cheap . The food is a great experience, world course is amazing faultless. Can't say the same for the signature dishes (may be not for my pallet . When it's 2 stars it's not just about food it's also about the whole experience. For a 2 Micheline star and at that price point, you would expect it to blow you away, but it comes a bit underwhelming, I must say. But definetly an experience, If you can you must try this place worth the drive and a visit."

"managed to get a wellie bar table one Friday evening. Service was A1 from all serving and bar staff, yes the food is a little more pricey than your standard pub food, but the food is many levels above standard in terms flavour and quality. lots of gluten free choice and the information provided was extremely detailed leaving us feeling special and not like GF awkward customers would advise to book, to avoid disappointment. its also dog friendly, and dogs will love the dog treats, I was tempted to trying myself they looked so good Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5"

The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was perfect. I highly recommend trying their Sunday Lunch, it was one of the best meals I've had in a long time. For vegetarians, this place is a must-visit as they have a large selection of vegetarian options to choose from. I will definitely be coming back here again."

"As someone who has worked as a waitress before, I know what a busy restaurant looks like. It took a long time for us to order drinks, with one even being served in a dirty glass. Ordering our food was also delayed. We ended up ordering too much Calamari, with the portions being uneven. The Bratbeef dish came with only two small pieces of meat. After we finished our meal, no one came to clear our table and the staff seemed to have disappeared. We had to search for them in the bar. It took a total of 3.5 hours to serve a party of four people two courses. Overall, we were extremely disappointed with the service, especially since we had family visiting from Leeds with two young children."
