The main restaurant has comfortable seating, the service was attentive and friendly. Our main courses were cooked to perfection and despite only taking a main and desert we didn’t leave hungry.

Visited yesterday and it's my 4th - 5th time here. Has a nice ambiance but can be a bit quiet. Service is very good. Was a little disappointed with my choice. I ordered the curry with chicken but there was not much chicken in it. My friend ordered the fish and chips but said the fish was not fresh ( like it had been frozen ) and it was the same last time they ordered it. I do like it here but would have to reconsider before visiting again or recommending for food...
