    I brought my children for dinner today and they were as impressed as I always am! As usual, the roast dinner was cooked to perfection and the children really enjoyed their burgers and sausages and despite being very full, also managed to make room for ice cream and chocolate brownie. Lovely wine, good coffee and helpful, friendly staff and owners. Thanks Will and Jason for a lovely, relaxing Sunday.

    We were a table of 14. The staff were really attentive and copied with our orders exceptionally well. We had pre ordered and all the food came out as we had ordered hot and lovely. We also had a very last minute addition to our numbers which was no problem to them at all. The food was lovely everyone enjoyed it with no complaints from anyone. I would highly recommend this restaurant. Thank you guys.

    As always, a wonderful Sunday roast complete with gluten free Yorkshire Puddings. My partner had Aunt Donna’s Big Kebab with skin on fries which was huge and delicious! Delightful Rioja and a pint of Neck Oil. Sadly no room for the wonderful puddings today. Thanks for another lovely dining experience.
