Service was good but steak was rare and cold when ordered medium rare. Steak was also fatty and really chewy, so much so that I left most of mine. Not what you’d expect for the price. Onion rings were nice but a tad greasy inside. I’ve no doubt that I could have sent my steak back but by then my partner would have finished his food and we were also in a rush so didn’t have time to wait for it to be redone. Restaurant was a really nice vibe and staff were friendly but for the price and quality of the food I’m not sure I’d return again.

Soup not warm enough. Very few options on Groupon menu with paying for extras. No sweet course available for Groupon, must have starter then main. Music inappropriate for a restaurant, and was too loud.

Superb meal. Great steak ( Taylor’s of Derbyshire so you will never go wrong) perfectly cooked. Also excellent sea bass. The profiteroles and chef made sauce are dangerously good! Wonderful service, attentive without hovering and lovely to chat to. Booked for a larger group visit in February on the spot. First rate.

A lovely evening meal for our date night. The food was really good and the service was attentive. Personally, we felt the lighting was a bit bright, but it didn't really detract from the evening. Thank you.

Been coming here a couple of few times a year for the last 10 years at least, if we lived closer I’m sure it would be more regular 😊. Service, food and ambience were brilliant. Definitely would recommend and we will definitely be back.
