Good food that has become rather expensive. £34 for main courses at dinner. I do like this place, but it has become impersonal. The front of house staff now change too often and the chef is rarely seen. I come here nearly every month and regret the inconsistency in the service. Skilled staff have been replaced by less skilled staff. Little acts of generosity are no more. People need to be reminded that hospitality requires some generosity... A little effort please!
