    Overall very good. I have commented on the loud nature of the venue on two previous occasions, this still is an issue. On this occasion I have to mention your Sunday lunch. The quantity is over large & could be reduced to make it more manageable. Also both my wife & I found our food cold ……… Must be improved.

    Everything was good & a nice lunch with my wife &daughter. The only issue I really have is the Noise level it is at times unbearable, especially for dinners. This is the second time recently where the the noise levels has been unacceptable. Really must improve this element of the service.

    Breakfast is always a great experience with some interesting choices for the more adventurous diners alongside the more usual options expected. The atmosphere is comfortable and a mix of family groups and friends meeting for a leisurely meal leads to a comfortable buzz as conversations flow between diners.
