   Best food and Experience I’ve had in a very long time. Steak and burgers are to die for, sticky toffee pudding and the chocolate molten cake after just finished it off. Service was spot on even tho extremely busy, couldn’t fault a single thing.

   Can not fault this place in any way. Easily one of the best steaks I have ever had. Service was also fantastic. Highly recommend!

   We had the sharers roast dinner. Great taste and presentation. The gravy was amazing. However, the portion size, especially the meat, was small. The beef was delicious but fatty and chewy. I have definitely had better. But the biggest disappointment was that I left hungry. I’ve never had a roast dinner out where I have left the restaurant hungry before - and I’m a small person with a small appetite! Not sure I would have a roast dinner here again.

    Generally we would give this place 5 star,...food is great, waitresses are really good also! What started off a nice afternoon, but ended with the girl who seats people staring at our table looking completely stressed, so when we were handed the bill before we could order anything else, we knew we were getting hurried to leave. I said to my wife, I think they're hurrying us to leave for the table, (we had been there about an hour and a half) then the stressed seating girl came over and asked for the table back, just as I had presumed. I would have no problem with this generally, but there is no indication and no communication from the staff when entering that they would need the table back after an hour and a half (you can only eat and drink as fast as you’re served). Myself and my wife have both run prestigious restaurants and hotels, so feel we are the best people to point out that small communication like ‘we will need the table back after an hour and a half' should be a priority on entering the restaurant. When I confronted the front of house, the girl did apologise and say she was stressed, but upon leaving I did hear her say to the manager that she didn't rush us,....completely false, as we could see the whole scenario playing out before our eyes! Just a thought to the restaurant for future,....communication is key
