Food and service were outstanding. A beautiful bar and surroundings. Only thing that let it down were the flickering bright lights directly above when sat at the benches against the wall. Very minor though and overall a gorgeous evening.

Convenient location nr town centre, with plenty of parking nearby. Staff friendly and helpful, service time acceptable. Food good and inexpensive. Looking a bit rough round the edges but just been taken over so hopefully will be fixed (toilets mainly).
