    We had a fantastic girly lunch here - the set lunch menu was delicious and reasonably priced. The servers were attentive and went above and beyond for us as we had a 8 month old baby. Will definitely come back and visit in the summer to enjoy the balcony!

    The food was ok, but the service was poor, when we turned up the bar staff was apologising for not being able to take ordered, we were at the bar for 15 mins before service. Then the meal, we had just got our drinks and were told we had to leave the table for them to set up next service, but the place was empty, they could have waited. Being pushed out of a restaurant when we are spending that much is poor, puts us off coming back

    Valentines Dinner wasn’t good value. Set price £90, paid extra for guaranteed window view table, the glass of fizz wasn’t offered although it was part of the set menu, we had to ask by which time the canopies had arrived, my husband wasn’t seated & a minute later the starters arrived. The main , steak was very good but just warm, 1 small potato , no vegetable just a swirl of sauce. Desert, 1 piece of cheese which was good. Service was good but overall expensive for what it was.
