We loved the food the menu was explained to us for things we didn’t know. The starters were so good we were almost full before the main course arrived. I had a pudding which was so unusual we loved exploring it. I am going to go back as soon as I can.

Majority of our food was excellent. We ordered 2 burgers, steak pie and 2 kids Sunday lunches. Chicken dinner was delicious, but the beef dinner was tough. If you like sky sports, then it’s the ideal place to watch the footy.
