From beginning to end our experience was a delight. We were made to feel special and valued. Our designated waitress looked after us brilliantly and the acknowledgement of our anniversary at the end of the meal was excellent and so appreciated. The attention to detail in every aspect was so pleasing. I have only marked the food down slightly because my husband's fillet steak was a little more rare than he likes but that is so difficult with that cut so it's my husband I should really mark down! Thank you for a special, and for me, a rare treat of an evening.

We ordered French onion soup, pork cheek to start which was delicious. Me and my partner both had the fillet steak with truffle and Parmesan fries, onion rings and mac n cheese everything was 10/10 no faults. Steak cooked perfectly. For desert I had the baked Alaska and my partner had sticky toffee pudding both were fantastic! Jonathan our server was amazing too!

What a lovely venue, food and staff. Everything seemed just right for a “date-night,” great ambience that gave us a feeling of privacy, yet not isolated, an engaged and pleasant waiter that didn’t overdo any interactions, food that was expertly prepared but that didn’t get in the way of conversation. A nigh-on perfect evening.
