First time visit and will certainly come back. Excellent service from the moment I walked through the door- lovely touches like tea in a proper teapot, food delivered to the table with style, helping me on with my coat as we were leaving and several members of staff thanking us for our visit. My son’s Chicken Schnitzel was wonderful ( his words), my fish and chips a little less so but still enjoyable. When I mentioned to the waiter that I hadn’t really enjoyed the fish, the Maitre d’ came straight to see us and apologised - there was no need it wasn’t a complaint. Do visit here it is a grown up restaurant rather than a bar that serves food and they genuinely want you to enjoy your visit.

Despite there being a big party upstairs service was good. We had a young boy with us and the staff made him feel special making sure he was spoken to with regard to his orders, they went above and beyond for him. The food was excellent as usual with generous portions. my next visit is already booked.
