"I have visited this restaurant twice in the past two weeks and have already made a reservation for the end of the month. After reading some negative reviews, I was unsure if we had visited the same place. The meals we tried were delicious and reasonably priced. The service was a bit slow, but I appreciated the more relaxed pace compared to other places. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The only thing lacking was a bar area for pre-dinner drinks, but I look forward to enjoying some drinks on the patio during the warmer weather."

We had a good meal! Affordable and fresh. The cod was in a tasty andd crispy batter. The squash pie was marvelous and the sides on the plate were good and fresh. Large cod too, could not even finish the last bit. Recommended!

Our first time here celebrating a lunch out for my husband’s 50th. The staff are lovely and can’t do enough for you. The menu is small but has a great choice including the kids menu. Food is freshly cooked and the portions are plentiful. The food is delicious. Toilets are spotless. All in all a lovely lunch and something we will definitely return to. Thanks

I recently had the best meal I've had in a while at this restaurant. The food was fresh, hot, and well presented. My companions and I all enjoyed the chicken cordon bleu, which was fantastic. Two of us also tried the fish and chips and were pleased. The desserts were also delicious. I highly recommend this place, although it could benefit from a larger sign outside to attract more customers. Our waitress, Allison, was excellent.

"We had been to Franco's many times before and loved it, both under the original ownership and the new. However, it seems that it has changed hands yet again and not for the good I'm afraid. Although, judging by the November reviews maybe it is back on track again. I also note that late September/early reviews are similar to ours, which was very poor. In fact we left before the food arrived, mainly due to the extremely poor level of service we received with our drinks. We were out to celebrate my wife's birthday and to start the evening, the four of us all ordered double Gin Tonic's. However, it took 40 minutes for the drinks to arrive. And if if we thought the time taken to bring the drinks was bad, then you can imagine our disappointment when one of the waitresses brought four large dirty glasses with what looked like water in them. No ice, no lemon, and the mixers already poured in the glass, so no way to judge what level of gin we had received. When we asked about the ice and lemon they looked at us in astonishment. We assumed that they had none of neither, otherwise why bring drinks without the basics? It was like they had never worked in a bar/restaurant before and had just wandered in off the street. To make matters worse, they then arrived later with a glass of lemons and a glass of ice. By this stage we could see the evening descending into chaos and we decided to leave. No apology from the staff or questions, they just allowed us to leave and got on with their business. Very off-putting. We decided to try Killocks, which was surprisingly good. Unfortunately, that's another restaurant off the go-to list."
