We loved it here, down stairs in the pub and restaurant it was very busy and quite noisy but still a good atmosphere. we had a table upstairs booked as we had the dog with us and it was much quieter and calmer. The food was amazing. Only small comment would be that the only fish main was a sharer and it would have been nice to enjoy a fish and my partner have a meat roast. I had the chicken and my partner had the beef and they were delicious.
