  • "Staff were friendly. Food was nice. Food did take ages and they didn't have much staff but that was down to isolation."

Cons:

  • "Whatever you do don't go here when it's farmers weekend because the prices they charge you for a simple drink is ridiculous!!!!"

  • "The tables were sticky, the food was slow and cool."
  • "Terrible experience. We was told 45-60 min wait for food and that wasn't the problem as we was expecting that due it being the school holidays, but seeing the staff eating and chilling and not even cleaning tables."
