    Such a great place even better if you are a fan of crufts. Better in summer - when dog owners have more space outside.

    Warm friendly welcome with a wide choice to cater for all tastes. Everyone was pleased with their choice and we didn’t feel pressure to leave as soon as we were finished, which was great! Thank you - a lovely evening.

    We had lunch on a cold December day.The food was great, especially the Christmas pudding. Service was cheerful and timely. The restaurant was a bit chilly, otherwise we would have rated it 5 star.

    The atmosphere was lovely, Christmas decorations were being put up, and everyone was enjoying the evening. The service was excellent, both our waitresses were very attentive,even though it was very busy. This is obviously a very popular restaurant in the area. The food was excellent,but we thought a little expensive. It is certainly worth a visit if you are in the area. A coach load of young men were about to enter as we left, not sure how that changed the situation .....
