Cons:

  • "Only came for a meal. Whilst the outdoors was lovely in the sun the indoors was different... Had the tiger prawns which looks nice but a very vinegary flavour."
  • "Burger was literally as thin as a butter knife and burnt (12.95!), lasagne was a load of mince congealed together in a sauce on 1 sheet of soggy pasta! Never again."
