Great reception on arrival. Prompt and professional service throughout. Food was outstanding as always. Portions were big too. Love going here. Better atmosphere than Port Edgar.

Arrived on time, after 20 mins of waiting, we had to ask for our order to be taken. When food arrived one of the orders was incorrect. Advised after 1hr 15mins that we had to vacate our table in 5 mins so unable to order anything else and then error with bill, overcharged for 1 meal.

Charged a 10% service charge. Toilets were awful. Great food but charging a service was a disgrace. Won’t be back for that reason.

Slow service and 3 of the items we wanted to order were no longer available. Shame because the food was very very good.

Great food, tasty, and we’ll go back. Only thing that spoiled it a tad was drinks that we ordered that didn’t arrive … so we left earlier than planned.

This was possibly one of the worst dining experiences ever. Marked as a birthday for my partner on the booking but no acknowledgement of this whatsoever. Barely warm, oversalted, greasy bacon on burger, cold fries and no-one asked how our meal was. We declined to pay the ludicrous service charge and felt that the staff couldn't get us out fast enough.
