    Went on a Monday lunch time very quiet, so staff attentive and plentiful. Food was very good had the set lunch £29 for 3 courses the cheesecake was excellent. It's a bit out of the way perhaps you have to look for it. We went after reading a review online and weren't disappointed. Hope they keep it going.

    Service was very attentive but food delivery unacceptably slow. About 1 hour between order and delivery. Rarely seen a flatter souffle outside of home

    We had a lovely meal—the steak was delicious. However, we were all disappointed by the wine selection, as it was entirely low-intervention wine. I don’t mind seeing that as an option on a menu, but when it’s the only choice, it makes things difficult for guests who prefer more traditional flavors. It was also a real shame that they refuse to accept cash. Such a shame. Sadly, we won’t be coming back because of these two factors, which is unfortunate given how good the food is and how nice the staff are.

    Average food, overcrowded space and so loud you can barely have a conversation.

    The restaurant has great potential and the food dishes are innovative and I like they change with the seasons. But, all dishes were very sauce heavy so you weren't able to appreciat the flavorful produce.

    Extremely good food and wine. Great attentive service and food came out quickly. The wooden chairs could do with some padding tho!
