It was nice ,there was a variety of ages in our party from 8 - 76 but no kids menu however the 8 year old had an adult starter for her main and that was sufficient- the other thing that disappointed us was when you enter side door instead of going through the public bar the chef and another member of staff were standing in the doorway smoking so apart from it being a bit smelly it wasn’t very professional,having said all that I would return
