    Food was good but spoilt by poor service- the Sunday roasts arrived without the vegetables, we had to ask twice for some veg and also a serving spoon! While waiting for the veg the meat / potatoes / Yorkshire pudding went cold No adequate children’s menu- they offer “ small portions” from the Sunday lunch menu but not in chicken , for no reason.

    Limited choice on menu. Over priced. Slow service from removing meals after we finished to not offering a dessert menu to leaving us an hour or more with no request for anything else we may need. We had to flag the waiter to ask for the bill. There was a quiz in the main bar which was loud. A man from the pub decided to speak loudly on his mobile in the restaurant area which disrupted our conversation. Only us and one more table occupied so no excuse for poor service.

    Really good food, nice place, will definitely go again. This time, we had a very noisy trio behind us; we should have asked to move (there were plenty of alternative tables available). The staff were lovely too.

    The service was exceptional from the moment we walked in. The staff gave us plenty of time to decide but were still very attentive. The choice and quality of food was outstanding, hot, fresh and tasty. We will definitely come back.

    Food was nice, staff were pleasant and obliging. Booked on line and options were the restaurant or "standard" we chose standard as we prefer the bar area but the table had been booked in the restaurant, we were able to move without any problem into the bar area. Car parking was possible as there was a large walking group who had monopolised the car park, some of them were eating in the restaurant. Not the fault of the venue but discourages passing trade.
