Great service with lovely staff. Very polite and staff will always help whenever required. Service was efficient without being overbearing The room was really well presented with a really good bar and good bar service. Some dishes were very slightly over priced but all of the food and drink was absolutely stunning with excellent presentation. Would very happily go again!

I ordered a rib eye steak and received a fillet steak. They were quite busy so could not be bothered to tell them as my husband would have finished his food by the time my food was sorted.

We ordered the cout de bouf, it was very disappointing. The meat was fatty and slightly chewy- not what one would expect from a £75 cut
