Went for a combined mother's day and birthday meal the other week and I'm so sorry but the quality of food was awful, the meat tasted like a boil in the bag roast beef and the vegetables and roast potatoes were clearly frozen and the Yorkshires were burnt, this was such a let down when you have to pay an extra £1 a Yorkshire and around £2 extra for roasties, you'd expect quality, we were practically the only family there and I did think it was strange as it was mother's day, I expected it to be busy but this explains it. Our drinks never even came to the table and we had finished what we could eat of the food before just leaving after waiting, Unfortunately I will not be back and wouldnt recommend to anyone I'm afraid ?

Went for some food before the band.(copperhead which were really good we enjoyed the night) drinks were standard price and it was a nice touch to receive a token with chance to win a bottle of spirit. Service was excellent all staff were very attentive and friendly. Prawn cocktail was lovely however bread was stale so had to ask for butter, ordered steak (as online reviews were good) however this was a mistake as sirloin was terrible, tough and chewy, onion rings were nice, peas were tasteless (would be better to have frozen garden pea) all in all a mixed bag, place was very busy though and on the whole we enjoyed our night out.

They were amazing. I took a group of around 25 people here for Christmas lunch. They got everyone's order correct and made adjustments for people with special requests and needs. This establishment is hidden away in a housing estate, but what a find. The staff are a credit to their employer and the food is perfect. The atmosphere is warm and cosy. I was very pleased.

So had Sunday dinner today and even though i had done 6 hours at work and was really hungry when the so called Sunday dinner came it didn't look that good. My partner even swapped Yorkshire puds as she saw mine was worse than hers. Beef squashed together in a mush veg hard and the roast potatoes were the worst I've ever had. So when I complained with the full plate still evident of how i felt the staff only said sorry to hear you didn't like it !!! Beers good staff class bur food horrendous. Don't eat here just enjoy a drink.
