Food
Pros:

"Delicious food including the gluten free and dairy free options."
"We had the stone bass, probably the best we ever had."
"The food is next level for pub food."
"The cheese souffle was as light as a feather."
Cons:

"Ordered plain macaroni cheese, it arrived with bacon - an unwelcome addition."
"The fries were a let down. Frozen out the bag and chucked in an air fryer."
"The roast pork was nowhere near those standards though…lack of seasoning made for an extremely bland plate of ‘Meh’."
"The garlic bread was burnt, macaroni cheese was watery."
"Absoloutely the worst fillet steak I have ever eaten. Fatty, tasteless and badly cooked."

"Atmosphere - only four stars because of inconsistent temperature."
"The male manager with the ponytail is below average though."
"Been here a few times for drinks and found some of the bar staff to be hit and miss with their manners and service standards."
"Nice dining area at the rear though a little dark now that they've added covered outdoor seating behind it."
"There was so much smoke coming from the kitchen into the restaurant. The smoke effected my eyes."
Value
Pros:

"A good beer selection and a comprehensive wine list to choose from."
"The food here is delicious, totally appropriate for the price point."
"Quality food and reasonably priced."
"First visit since its renovation. It looks great- a very comfortable and smart bistro style decor. Food was very good too. Generous portions and very tasty. Bill was reasonable for the quality."
"Nice pub good food but food is expensive, yet beer surprisingly reasonably priced."
Cons:
"£5.25 is the most expensive shandy I have ever purchased."
"Come for nice venue and drinks but the food is not worth the cost."
"Bit on the dear side though, so not a cheap drink or dinner out."
"Over priced for the portions food ok portions getting smaller every time."
"Also if you are ordering the crispy beef, which is very tasty, don't bother ordering the main course size as it is almost exactly the same size as the starter (what a rip off)....but it tasted nice, maybe I was unlucky."
"Pleasant but overpriced. Portions small and annoyingly a tip was added to the bill."
