It’s great to see the place in good hands with someone who has knowledge of the place and what it could offer. Look forward to seeing how they venture forward. A lovely venue for a catch up and a big thumbs up for the live bands. The food was really good quality and the portions where a good size for the price. Will definitely be rating to friends and family.

We arrived and made ourselves known but weren’t seated for a further 5 minutes. The waitress was really friendly but the overall service was poor. We waited a fair while to be asked if we were ready to order to a point where we were unsure if we had to go up to the bar and order or if it was table service. Food arrived and was very filling and enjoyable, However we waited again quite a while for our plates to be cleared and then got spoken to by a male colleague as if he didn’t want to be there. Overall food was enjoyable but wouldn’t go back if the service stayed at this standard

Honestly have to say that the service we received here was probably the best we have had anywhere. Food was good and of reasonable value with large portion sizes. (Don't rely on the on-line menu though as this is somewhat out of date - as are the prices shown. If we are ever in the area again, we will certainly come back.

Food pretty cheap but cheerful, my lasagne was horrible and made me feel ill later on and my husband wasn’t too impressed with his pie. The only good meal out of the 4 was my son’s fish and chips! Also easier to go to the bar yourself for drinks as after initial welcome your don’t see the serving staff to get anymore drinks other than when the food arrives. If you are after cheap and cheerful, you can’t go wrong here but I expected more as it sounded much better on Book a Table. My husband did say the ale was well looked after if just drinking there.

The feeling at Tricky's was lovely, a hum of people and a feeling of comfort. The food came out quickly and was hot, but no special touches such as garnishes etc. The food was priced well for what was received, and was cleared away quickly. The staff were lovely and the evening was set up well for the band in the evening. Overall, an enjoyable experience.

I am in a wheelchair and gluten intolerant, Tricky's is wheelchair accessible and there are Gluten Free/ Dairy Free choices on the menu. When we arrived the gentleman helped to hold the door open for my husband so he could push the wheelchair through the door. We sanitised our hand's and the young woman took us to our table, the table was a perfect height for my wheelchair. We were given menus and asked what we would like to drink. When our drinks arrived, she asked if we were ready to order or needed a bit more time. We had already decided to have the Gammon Steak meal. The meal was piping hot and was delicious too, I loved the whole meal but the chip's were so tasty and flavourful. We were both full, so I had a coffee and my husband had tea. The atmosphere has a friendly feel and the staff are friendly and welcoming. I would recommend Tricky's to my friends and family.

Booked for lunch just before Christmas. Food was absolutely fantastic and served very quickly, despite the restaurant being quite busy. The price was super, very impressed with the quality of the food for the cost. We will definitely visit again.
