Really enjoyed visiting. The food is slightly overpriced in and of itself but more than made up for by the experience in terms of ambience. Overall, first time going but not the last!

The staff were friendly and welcoming. We stayed a long time chatting and they didn't ask for the table back until after nearly 2 hours. Lovely food. I hadn't realised the kitchen closes for food at 11 when I booked the table for 10:30 but that was probably my own fault. Beautiful setting with great views and lovely decor. We were all very content leaving.
