Great venue and brilliant wine selection which we enjoyed very much. The starter of crab salad was tasteless but scallops were gorgeous. We were presented with a lovely loaf of bread soon after we were sat down which we enjoyed very much. The service was outstanding. The waiters were attentive and courteous. Overall a fair to good experience.

The website menu and prices are outdated, I asked the waiter about Chowder which is on the website, he responded that's gone months, as if everyone is regular there!! Steak's nice and all good until we went to pay.. the guy says.. voucher's 🙄.. yea cash vouchers that I bought last week..as if I got a gift of them. Annoying. I think 300 enough to pay for basically 2 steaks and chips 🤑 it was nice but he def took the edge off it. I think he's in that job too long and complacent!!

I ordered a 2019 Barolo wine and and without advising me the waiter when questioned advised the 2019 wine will be the same as 2020? The food was so so. No guidance as to whether price went down or up ? Cheers Brendan
