Service was very good despite the restaurant being very busy. There was a good choice on the menu and we both opted for the open prawn sandwich and some chunky chips to share. We weren't offered butter for the wheaten bread but it was very quickly provided when we requested it.

Food was overall average and expensive. Under staffed, which became apparent very quickly. As the staff were under a lot of pressure due to it being a bank holiday . We felt that we were forgotten about.

Lovely restaurant. Nice table at the window. We had scampi & chips from the £6 special lunch menu. The food was perfectly cooked and presented and was great value for money. The service was first class, a special thank you to Sarah-Jane.

Table was very dimly lit, and sticky, as was the cocktail menu , it obviously had cocktail spilt on it but never checked or cleaned, server was rather abrupt and to the point, felt like she didn’t want to be working, the menu hasn’t been updated in months and steak was well overpriced. The starters arrived and we’re ok just ok, the mains were very disappointing in value, tasted ok but small portions burgers were laughable, Didn’t have dessert wasn’t spending any more in this place, Not a place if you want a quiet meal, several large parties of birthday parties and hen do’s, which are prob only there for the drink not the food . Sadly will not return , better venues close by
