    Food and service was very good. There was no child's menu however they adapted the set menu to accommodate. Wouldnt call it value for money, prices probably a bit above average for up town. We had an itison voucher which took the edge off! There was no difference to the menu when using the voucher.

    Nice food but service a bit slow and I wouldn't pay full price. Great value with a voucher. Its a dark place with navy walls and I prefer light rooms . Glad we were seated by a window

    Fantastic meal - not your average ‘pub’ food - a much higher quality! Great atmosphere and friendly staff with great choice of cocktails too!

    I had a great meal here. My cocktail was delicious and a great start to my meal. I had the confit duck which was excellent, and a nicely portioned and flavoursome dish. I ended my meal with a moist sticky toffee pudding which was decadent and had plenty of sauce! Would recommend for a date night or a casual dinner with friends, as much as I would for a nice night out. The wait staff were lovely, chatty and friendly and happy to offer suggestions for your meal.
