    Overall a very enjoyable experience however the service was somewhat disjointed, we waited an unacceptable amount of time after one glass of champagne had been poured before my guest received theirs. The atmosphere is lovely and we appreciated the pianist in the background. The traditional afternoon tea food was well presented and tasty. We loved the savoury selection.

    Superb food -- one of the best meals I've had in the local area. Lamb chop and beef fillet were real highlights. Friendly, warm and welcoming, with drinks by a cosy fire. More of a gastro pub so different from most pubs in the area -- in a good way: remarkable quality and attention to detail. We will be back soon!

    Beautiful light bright restaurant. Makes such a change from all those trendy dimly lit places where I need my phone torch to read the menu. Decor is fantastic, staff all well dressed and wearing signature notify on dresses and waistcoats etc. lovely big bar / counter area. Great mixture of seating. Food choice and standard of food is good as is the choice of drinks. Service from bar, to waiting to concierge is all professional and helpful but not overly fussy. We just love eating in here and people watching. It has a lovely vibe.

    Had the most amazing lunch/ brunch here on NYD. After coming here in summer and being in the industry myself I knew this is the place I would want to bring guests. The food was all great, the beef filet exceptionally good and cooked to perfection. The service at the start could have been better but Kim the manager/ GM? saved the day. He was compassionate, friendly, kind and helpful. Thank you to all the team who made such a special occasion so memorable and big shout of to Kim ❤️ happy new year team and thank you.
