  • "The food was absolutely exceptional, ordering a 'small' fish and chips, two mixed grills and the seabass, wall demolished our food as it was all cooked to perfection and served with aplomb."

  • "Fantastic food. The fillet steak sandwich was heaven."
  • "Food was amazing."

Cons:

  • "Drinks really expensive, I was expecting a gorgeous steak due to what people had told me, luckily I like my steak medium rare, my friend asked for well done and it was raw in the middle, it was sent back and returned to how she wanted it, chips overcooked, small portions and the blue cheese sauce was like packet cheese sauce, very disappointed will not be returning."
  • "Ordered fish and chips and decided to go large for extra 4 quid.. it came and I thought she had got wrong order..seen more cod on a fish fingers and the chips where like bullets.. seemed precooked.. only decent thing was the peas... hmmm"
  • "Sorry but poor. Gammon tough and salty."
  • "Food was very dry and lacked flavour."
  • "The meal I had was terrible and would have sent it back if it wasn't Christmas."
  • "The cheese pie was very dry and bland, the chips on both meals, almost inedible, certainly not freshly cooked."
