    We had dinner The Rise whilst staying at the Grand Hotel. There were 6 of us celebrating a big birthday. The food and service were both excellent and I wouldn't hesitate to return.

    Lovely bar area with friendly ,attentive staff. Then afternoon tea in the restaurant which was delicious . However, it took almost an hour from sitting down to getting our food . Had to ask for more hot drinks and cutlery.
