    We waited over half an hour for someone to take our order and in the end I had to ask a passing waitress to take our order. Also, my wife was not very happy with her main course. She ordered pulled lamb shepherds pie from the specials menu but it was just minced meat and not pulled meat. We did get an apology for the slow service, but I’m not sure we will return.

    Received the most lovely welcome from a lady who commented on the humour used at my point of booking and was THEEEEE MOST ACCOMMODATING in finding us a table that matched my disabilities Food was simply delightful. Best roasted potatoes and creamed cabbage everrr. We enjoyed starters of mushrooms on sourdough (the chef changed the starter to accommodate my dislike of blue cheese) and my friend enjoyed the black pudding & bacon stack from the specials menu We both chose the mixed roast main course (chicken, beef & pork belly). We ordered extra cauliflower cheese and pigs in blankets (yes greedy but necessary). Too full for desserts but good choice available. A couple of coffees and x2 pints of soft drink each. £40 ish each Just book. You’ll love it !!!
