    The whole experiences from start to finish was outstanding. We were greeted with such a warm welcome and nothing was to much, the initial drinks order was done very swiftly then we was given as much time as we needed to order. The Food!! well what can I say. from the presentation to the table was first class. And I can honestly say both me and my wife agreed that this was the best Sunday Roast that we have EVER tasted. I actually have no accurate words to describe it. The departure from the restaurant was equally as perfect as the whole time there and front of house and there serving staff I could not fault. It was such a breathe of fresh air to be in a restaurant of this class. Well done all Absolutely Perfect and could not fault one aspect of it all. Finally well done to the man in the background!!!!! The CHEF, and what a CHEF

    We were greeted very pleasantly when we arrived and shown to our table. The servour ask if we required water for the table without us having to ask which was ideal. Seat was at the window overlooking the river and ambient music was to our liking. A good variety of options on the menu which we had viewed online so service was prompt. Wine complimented the menu perfectly and the cheese board which we shared. A most enjoyable experience was had. We shall return.

    The intoxicating tea party was good value for money. Although a little more detail to presentation would have made the experience even more enjoyable.
