Cons:

Value for Money

Pros:

• "Two course for four came to just over £40. Bargain."
• "Great value for money too."
• "I was on a meal deal from the Premier Inn next door and so very good value."
• "I have to say one of the nicest meals I have had, also had a 33% off food voucher which made the whole meal very reasonably priced."
• "Kids eat free, what a winner. I doubt you will find a better value breakfast."
• "Had a taste card so all meals 2 for 1, the kids meals are good value and healthy options available, food is cooked and presented to a good standard."
• "The 40% voucher helped with the bill."

Cons:

• "Was disappointed at paying £2.80 each for 2 cream sodas to find out it was a barr can that you get in shops for around 59p."
• "Nearly £50 so very expensive for what we did actually have."
• "When we got the bill, they charged us £5 for gravy! Honestly couldn’t believe it."
• "Regularly use this restaurant when staying at adjacent Premier Inn. Generally enjoy ambiance, friendly staff - however, this review prompted by inedible (and expensive) lamb rump - total waste of money, avoid."
• "The only gripe is the prices, just over £50 for 2 of us and that was for a starter and main each, with a 40% voucher otherwise it would have been £66 which is clearly way too much for a pub lunch."
• "Expensive food even with 40% voucher was double cost of hungry horse and the burgers were tasteless in comparison and tiny."
• "We ordered kids chips, which was £3.90 for a tiny portion of potato less chips, highly disappointed."

• "Its a lovely spacious and clean building."
• "Really nice place. Clean and cosy."
• "The restaurant area was clean and tidy with pleasant background music."

• "Tables were sticky from last nights beer."
• "The place is dirty, chairs are all stained I wouldn't even use them in my garden, rubbish under tables receipt bin overflowing."
