    Had the roast sharing platter, very nice but needed a bigger table. The boards that the food came on hung over the plates.

    Going here was a mistake. It was 2 pm on a Friday and they said it would be 45 minutes until the food came so we just ordered drinks and crisps from the bar, and that took over 20 minutes! They closed the beautiful back patio and only the front one facing the parking lot was open. We sat inside but it wasn’t a good experience. Never even got to taste the food. What a waste of time and it completely ruined our day out.

    We booked a table for 7.45pm but unbeknown to us there was a wedding reception & birthday party booked that evening which made it very busy. However, the numbers didn't bother us, once we confirmed our booking we sat at our table and waited to order our meal. We had a set menu so made our choices and went to the bar area to order our meal & drinks. We were served by Neal, who was very pleasant & helpful and apologised for the busy, noisy environment. I explained it didn't bother us. The courses did take a little bit longer time to be delivered to our table however each course was nice, freshly cooked as they were hot, well presented and overall very nice. Neal did in fact offer us an extra drink each as we'd been very patient & not complained about the delay in getting our food which was a nice gesture. Barring the 2 events that were going our 1st visit was very nice and we will certainly go back again.

    Food was good but as it had been a busy day quite much of the menu had run out. Service was very good and waitress very attentive.

    Qualify has gone down hill a lot. The staff are doing their best, but seems lacking in staff. Food quality is poor. It's not the chefs fault, that must just be given cheap poor quality products to use. I guess it's just the pub chain trying to cut corners to maximise profit. We've been many times over the years and it's getting progressively worse. I think that we'll no longer bother
