I have been meaning to try this place for too long. What a gem!! The fact it was packed on a Tuesday night when other restaurants in Fleet high street weren’t says something. Great food and great service. The salad presentation with the meat dishes was outstanding. Yeah it’s a bit noisy as it’s family orientated mid week and lots of birthday celebrations. Big conservatory area a tad cold but it was 2 oC outside. Will definitely be coming back
