Reviews
Lovely meal last night at our local. Food was cooked perfectly each of us having a different meal. Service was quick pleasant and the gentleman taking the order was extremely helpful as I forgot my reading glasses.
This place looks great. On arrival we ordered drinks at the bar and were taken directly to our table. We got the menu and realized that there was almost nothing vegetarian. The more we combed through the menu, the more it seemed like we were headed for a boring meal of chips and another side, as used to be common in gastropubs selling steak in ten different ways. In the end, we found a goats cheese pizza, and it was OK to not have the honey (seems reasonable to put that on if you like it, but pizza?). My wife had a Bhudda Bowl. Compared to the meat-eaters' options, these seemed dull and unimaginative. When the food came (quite promptly) it was absolutely brilliant. So tasty with fresh ingredients and beautifully balanced flavours. Clearly, the chef here is experienced and careful. We could not fault the food. The beer was excellent; the service was excellent and the general ambience was excellent. Even a rather drunk party of 20+ in our dining area barely registered and was rarely noticeable as we were having a good time. Overall, this was a superb meal and a lovely evening. The lack of options for vegetarians was strange, but ultimately not problematic. But now that we've had the options we chose, there is, sadly, no reason to go back unless the menu changes. Even so, I'd recommend this place very strongly, especially for omnivores!
Great food, great staff & excellent service. Consistently good food & great selection of drinks. Lovely warm atmosphere.
Hard to fault for pub type accommodation Excellent value for money. Good service overall. Only quibble is instant coffee only at breakfast, which lets down an otherwise very good breakfast menu. Luckily, I always carry my own stash of ground coffee when travelling!
