    Good service and food was nice. Steer clear of the the ‘cottage pie’. Mostly potato with little to no sauce or flavour.
    The Fat Badger YorkResponded 2 days ago
    Thank you for your review Rebecca, We apologise that our top-tier Cottage Pie was not up to its usual delicious standards. It is, however, nice to hear that the rest of your food was enjoyable and that you found the service brilliant. Cheers, Fat Badger
