The staff were delightful, so helpful, even when I asked a parking question (yes parking works differently in this country to back home). The food was delicious a d portions were generous! Everyone was smiling and laughing. What a lovely evening.

Great food, plenty of variety, reasonable prices, Family friendly. The place was already busy at 5.30pm. Will be my first choice when I am next in town.

Our food was a generous size, I had the classic burger and my husband had the veal parmi. Kids meals were a decent size too. The food was tasty. The ambience was cosy as we sat near the fire place on a cold winters day

Pub with a ‘local’ atmosphere. Friendly service and tasty meals. Edit: second visit, same outcome. Prompt warm welcome. Prawn Nasi Goreng and Bangers & Mash. Quick delivery on a very busy Sat lunch. Yummo
