    This place a fabulous venue, the staff were very friendly, efficient and very professional. The service is fantastic and the food was great value for money! My only criticism was my starter was very spicy and was excellent but then I ordered chicken noodles for my main and found it not to be as tasty it may have been due to the starter being so delicious. My family thoroughly enjoyed all of their food.

    Compliments to the chef and his staff for once again a wonderful Sunday Carvery Lunch. All restaurant staff extremely friendly and helpful. I have 2 elderly parents with mobility issues but there is always plenty of space in the restaurant. Wish you did the Carvery more often. Will be going again as my parents are small eaters and being able to choose how much and what they want is brilliant. Thank you all so much.
