    Unfortunately it seems cost cutting has made the food a lot less appealing. The roast potatoes were either under cooked or rock solid and everything seems alot less fresh than it used to be. Since discovering this restaurant from friends it has been our go to place for a Carvery, it was worth the travel as the food used to be exceptional. Now unfortunately for the cost and quality to may longer be that place.

    Sunday Carvery Excellent selection of meats with all the Sunday trimmings you would expect. All cooked really well. Happy to recommend the Old School Cake from the Dessert Menu with custard of course. The service was outstanding made to feel welcome and nothing was too much bother for the staff. Would definitely recommend and most certainly be returning

    Have been serval times for a Sunday lunch but found this time the service was very poor. Took 15 minutes for drinks to arrive and waited 40 minutes until we were called so we could get the carvery. Food was lovely as always but the service really let this visit down.

    Staff and food lovely, took a while for food to arrive. Didn’t like siting in the bar where a woman on another table quite brazenly joined in our private conversation. Not the restaurants fault but it marred the evening. Didn’t like walking past all the other diners to even book in

    Booked in solo prior to a local event so was given a nice quiet corner and music turned down at my request. Superb fish and chips, the fish was lovely and fresh, followed by ice cream and a ginger beer. My ideal! Love the building, staff very nice, what’s not to like. Thank you
