    Our family of six ranging in ages from 9 to 69 came for the Christmas Party menu Saturday lunch time. The service was warm and welcoming. The food a delight especially the beetroot cured salmon starter and parsnip valoute. Followed by delicious Turkey with all the trimmings and a vegetarian Wellington. The children had tasty burgers and chips. The chocolate tart was tasty. There were plenty of staff to serve us and it was nice to have crackers. The cafe is beautifully decorated for Christmas. All in all a lovely experience. Thank you.

    Lovely starters (beetroot Salmon) but sadly for our table 2 of the 4 beef on the Sunday lunch menu were inedible / un-cutable. Should have cooked at home. Great spot, lovely staff but sometimes not quite right in the kitchen on our visit. So much potential could be amazing.

    Excellent service and friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Sunday roast was delicious .. my partner had fish and chips also described as very tasty - curry sauce was quality! The food was piping hot and came to the table very quickly. On the more expensive side, however, as a treat, well worth a visit 🙌

    Fabulous location and restaurant, food was classic and classy, service friendly and attentive. One star has been knocked off because it was absolutely brassic in spite of a log burner - some patio heaters would have been very welcome!

    Excellent roast lunch! Beef was beautifully cooked. Jus was lovely and thick and absolutely delicious. Cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes and Yorkshire pudding were outstanding. Best roast we’ve had in ages.
