   We have wanted to try here for a while and I honestly could not have asked for more. The food was amazing and full of flavour with every bite, the staff were polite and very attentive. I cannot wait to go back.

   Fab restaurant, beautifully and tastefully decorated for Christmas & even Santa hats touch for each diner. Soft background music, great ambiance. Staff all lovely and the food was exceptional & excellent value for money

   Serve was quite slow and we often had to ask for service. Food overall was great but the petit fours were dismissal. I think the chef needs to google what they should look like. 2 cubes of fudge, a blob of gel, the topping from the trifle and another random item were not appealing and not petit fours!
   

   Dobson & ParnellResponded on December 19, 2024

   Thank you for sharing your feedback. While I’m pleased to hear you enjoyed the food overall, I’m sorry that the service was slower than expected and that the petit fours didn’t meet your expectations. Your comments about the petit fours are noted, and I’ll be sharing them with our chef to ensure we review and refine this offering. We aim to provide an exceptional dining experience in every aspect, and it’s clear we fell short on this occasion. We appreciate your honest feedback and hope we can welcome you back in the future to provide a more seamless and enjoyable experience.

   Excellent food, unfortunately poor service. We waited 20 minutes for our arrival drink then another 10 minutes for our order to be taken. Once they had our order the speed was much faster and service a lot better. Due to the delays at the start of the service, we were asked to leave our table for the next customers while we still had drinks. We weren't offered tea or coffee at the end due to time restrictions. Disappointing, thankfully the food was great.

   Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. While we’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the food, I’m truly sorry that the service fell short of your expectations. Waiting for your arrival drink and order to be taken is not the standard of service we aim to provide, and I sincerely apologise for the rushed experience towards the end of your meal. We truly appreciate your kind words about the food and hope we can welcome you back in the future to provide the outstanding experience you deserve.
