    Great food, lovely service and environment. Our young server did really well as it was her first shift. A particular mention for the gravy – just amazing.!!!

    We were a group of 6 with 2 dogs and were made to feel very welcome. The nibbles, starters, mains and desserts were plentiful and extremely tasty. The service was excellent. We will be visiting again soon. Thank you.
