I had the wild boar sausage hot sandwich, which was served with coleslaw and triple cooked chips. Generous number of sausages, which were cooked to perfection. The bread was fresh and tasty, the same with the coleslaw. The triple cooked chips were very hot on arrival, so I suggest you leave them for a while; the texture and taste were perfect. For dessert I tried the rice pudding with crumble topping, spiced apple and vanilla ice cream. Again, I couldn’t fault the texture and taste. My favourite part was the cinnamon in the apple puree. The young lady who served us was enthusiastic, helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. The building was warm without being hot, comfortable atmosphere and relaxing. No jarring music.

Amazing place, food and staff. A very friendly welcome and we immediately felt relaxed, enabling us to enjoy the fabulous surroundings before going into the dining room.. The different members of staff worked like clockwork, very attentive and the service was excellent. Food was delicious and cooked perfectly. Everything was tasty, hit and very good quality. In addition the wine was very good quality as were the coffee and desserts. All in all we are glad we visited and will certainly recommend and will visit again soon.
