    Overall my wife, daughter and I enjoyed our evening- food was very good and it was a very nice evening- only downside was that a glass of lemonade was spilt over me onto my coat, which was on the back of a chair, my shirt and trousers. Apologies we're offered and staff cleaned up the spillage and I did eventually dry out.

    Love this place. It was extremely busy, but hey it was the week before Christmas. We were sat in the new glassed area at the front of the restaurant. Great choice of food. Definitely worth a visit.

    Family of 5 meal out to celebrate a birthday. The food was lovely and the restaurant has a very nice look and feel. Have been there for meals before and never been disappointed. The monkfish in particular was delicious and perfectly cooked: my son who rarely gives praise said his burger was the best he had ever tasted and my husband had the lamb which was outstanding. Just some of the highlights. Whilst it isn’t cheap, you really do get what you pay for
