    Thankyou for a glorious meal on Christmas Eve in a beautiful environment which brought me and my girlfriend closer together. The flambe Christmas pudding was the highlight- the best Christmas pudding I have ever tasted- light yet rich and fruity.

    During my visit the waiting staff saved a lady’s life who was choking on a piece of food and held the situation very delicately. Well done.

    Had a wonderful experience with great food and superb, relaxed service. The team provided an unrushed and welcoming atmosphere, making for a truly enjoyable visit. However, the Christmas menu’s main course—Shepherd’s Pie—was a slight letdown compared to last year’s offering. That said, everything else was fantastic, and the overall experience was delightful!

    Very slow service, food had very little flavour. Steak was extremely dry and waiters took forever to serve drinks.
