Cons:

  • "They advertise some good deals but in reality they are too good to be true. Today we went for the 'Feed the Family for under £15' We knew it would be a lot more because of the price of drinks etc but did not realise that the deal is a scam."
  • "The fudge cake was as stale as a shower loofah and the brownie was small and like eating glue paste."
  • "Some prices were not too bad but some were very over-the-top especially the deserts."
  • "A small piece of Arctic Roll is £3.99 but you can buy a whole Arctic Roll in a supermarket for 99p!!!"
  • "Food was not great for the price paid."
  • "If you visit just for a drink then i would rate this pub as a 5 star, as for the food it really was not value for money."
