Had the crispy beef and trio of prawn starters. Had tastier king prawns but the crispy beef is something special! Rib eye steak and short beef rib for mains. Steak was perfect but the short beef rib…oh my days! Soooo good! The gravy/sauce that it comes with was amazing and the beef just fell apart and there was plenty of it! Wild mushrooms as a side were excellent! Quiet evening as we went early! Never had a bad dining experience here. 🧡

The waiter (young, possibly Italian) who attended to us was extremely polite and professional but also had a laugh with us. Very attentive but not bothering or harassing. Food was amazing - we had the fish and chips and it was so fresh and tasty. Cocktails for dessert which were perfect too. Price was really reasonable and well worth it. Will be going back again and recommending it to all my friends and family.

We had such a fantastic experience celebrating my wife’s 30th birthday! The staff really went the extra mile, even putting up a happy birthday banner, which was such a lovely personal touch. Everyone was incredibly welcoming and friendly. I also had a great chat with the head chef, who remembered me from our previous visit, which was really nice. The fireworks were fantastic, and when we got back, our dessert was ready and waiting for us. Everything was just spot on from start to finish. The food itself was absolutely outstanding – easily a 10/10. Overall, probably one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. A huge thank you to the whole team for making the evening so special. We’ll definitely be back!

    The food is always excellent, I had the garden plate whick has lots of different elements, yummy. My friend had fruit pancakes which ain't really my thing but I tried some anyway and they were delicious. Ambience and staff fantastic. Should be able to pay with cash and tip staff with cash. Service charge should be made obvious too.
