We were a group of 7. Lovely starters all round My main - the Devon chicken - was lovely and the haggis and pie also very good. A couple of the others didn't really enjoy their pork schnitzel. It's not a cheap place but great for a special occasion. I would recommend it. James - our server - was brilliant. At one point my mum had shared some bad news about her health and a couple of us got a bit teary. He happened to come to collect empty plates at that point and quietly left us to it and came back later. Most of the group didn't notice but I did and really appreciated it.

The room we were in was pleasant and as there were only 2 tables of people having afternoon tea it was quiet in there, so easy to chat. The service was good - very pleasant people. The food and selection was good - nothing spectacular but all very tasty, and we were given boxes to take away anything we couldn't finish. The only thing that would mark it down for us was they we were not offered a top-up of tea. We would probably have been given it if we had asked, but other venues offer it without you having to ask.
