  • "Food is excellent, cooked just how you want it."
  • "The food was amazing! The nut roast was also great according to the vege on the table."

Cons:

  • "The Greek salad was utterly disappointing and in comparison to the usually very healthy portions I thought I’d got a side dish by mistake!"
  • "The only slight disappointment was the mojito cocktail my wife ordered, it just tasted of lime cordial and water, we couldn't detect any rum at all!"
  • "The food was awful. We were all given stale bread with our starters."

  • "Had the roast beef, told the waitress that I couldn't even cut through the meat it was stringy and had thick gristle running through it."
