A reunion for 6 retired Old Farts. We chose the express menu. £35 for 3 courses. Had the (two substantial) Yorkshire puddings, with potted beef and onion gravy for starters. Then a beautifully cooked, tasty, rump steak and chips, with the hottest horseradish sauce ever. Finally, I overcame my reluctance, and ordered the sticky toffee sundae. Yes, you read it right. Worth the visit alone. Not being a drinker, I usually have limited choice for drinks, but their soda with a separate bottle of freshly squeezed lime juice, in a lovely ice filled glass, was a refreshing and wonderfully bitter joy. Lovely surroundings, service perfect, I ordered a large voucher for a Christmas present, and hope someone gets one for me.

We have only two complaints, the seasonal (Christmas) Scotch Egg needed more seasoning, which was surprising because every other element was perfect. And we were kind of ignored at the end of our meal, we had to chase someone down for boxes and the bill and the attitude of the person we asked was a little… off… like we were an inconvenience.
