"We celebrated my parents 50th wedding anniversary here and everything about our visit was fantastic from start to finish. My first conversation on the phone was with Amy who was so helpful, our party was for 18 people so I wasn’t sure the kitchen or venue could cater for us all but from the very beginning Amy reassured me it was absolutely possible because they have a separate dinning room “The Parlour room” they could fit us all in. I was able to decorate the room as I wished and I was even sent pictures of the tables when I had questions about the size of them etc. On the day we were served by Albert and 3 other really friendly, smiley staff who all gave fantastic service. Albert was wonderful on the day making sure we all had drinks at all times and organising the staff when he needed to. Then we move onto the food….it was amazing. It all came out at the same time, served by all the staff, it was all hot and cooked perfectly. The presentation of the food is so good and really tasty. We were all really happy with our food. Hats off to the chef it must have been a real challenge getting everything out at such a high standard all at once! They even sent my parents desserts out with a Happy Anniversary message on their plates. When it was time to clear our plates this was done by all the staff, all at once which really helped to speed up the clear up! I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone and especially if you are celebrating a special occasion with family or friends. Thank you to everyone working that day you were all fantastic and all helped to make my parents meal very special."

We recently had a small family gathering at a restaurant, with no special occasion to celebrate. We typically meet up weekly and it had been a while since we last dined at this particular establishment.

Has two starters instead of the main and what a treat, see images for our treats. Well presented an served by charming happy smiling ladies, sat in the garden and had a great meal, really pleased will go again as the food coming out of the immaculate kitchen looked awesome. Well done everyone at the William B truly loved it!

Let me start by saying, I am not vegan! I visited with a vegan friend and was really impressed by the menu when we found the event on social media. Not a mushroom in sight, amazing (for all my fellow mushroom haters! Every course was beautifully presented and packed with flavour. I did not miss meat or other animal produce at all, the plant based cheese and cream were a huge pleasant surprise. The trio of dessert was a dessert lovers dream, no tricky choices to make! The service was friendly and well paced. The chef chatted to us and some other guests at the end of the night which was lovely. We will definitely go back for the next vegan event, plus many other events they have lined up. To W...

When we informed the waiter about the issue, he took the food away but left the barely warm vegetables and cauliflower cheese on the table. We had to ask him to take those away as well and put them under a warmer while we waited for our dinners to be returned. When the dinner plates came back, they appeared to have been reheated but unfortunately, the food was still not hot enough. The vegetables and cauliflower cheese also returned, with the vegetables being warmer and the cauliflower cheese a bit hotter, but the overall temperature of the meal was still not satisfactory. Although I felt hesitant to complain again, I was disappointed that the food was not hot as expected for a Sunday lun...

I recently visited the Greatest Showman Afternoon Tea with my family, consisting of 4 adults and a 12-year-old. It truly was the greatest afternoon (excuse the pun)! The sandwiches and sausage rolls were delicious, the scones were perfect with plenty of cream and jam, and the selection of cakes catered to all tastes. The addition of popcorn was a nice touch. The presentation of the food was delightful, and the staff really got into the theme by dressing up as characters from the film. Special shoutout to the tattooed man who hosted karaoke and provided entertainment with songs from the musical. There was also a fun quiz and table hoopla game. Overall, it was a very enjoyable and entertaining...

The Greatest Showman Afternoon Tea! Came to this event on Saturday April 1st, it was absolutely brilliant. We were in a large group of 9 ladies, for afternoon tea. The food was stunning well presented and a lot of really nice choices, some of us are vegetarian, some have food intolerances but nothing was too much trouble for our host to sort out. Great selection of sandwiches with different fillings and homemade sausage roll that was delicious. homemade scones which were huge, lashings of clotted cream and fresh strawberry jam, extra cakes and teas and coffees too. Special cocktails were available for the event and they were great some good combinations and very reasonable prices with the 2...
