Service was pretty poor! Skye who “greeted” us was pretty unfriendly. I understand working in hospitality is difficult at times but come on, a smile and a bit of warmth isn’t hard. Hannah who checked on us was beautiful! Food was average at best. Kids meal were good; chicken nuggets. My salmon was slapped together, pretty unappealing to be honest!

I had the Lamb Marsala today and it was delicious. The lamb just fell apart it was so tender. We were seated immediately, the food was served promptly and we were not hurried.
