Fabulous food and service, staff are really nice. And what great value for money. A must visit for people in a 5 mile radius. The sea bass and duck confi were lovely. Everyone go go go
I booked a week before for 11 of us to celebrate my parents golden Wedding Anniversary. They were so good they provided yellow roses and napkins and a special personalised front for the menu. We had their from their set menu and didn't have to preorder which for such a big party we may have had to all the food came out together we were not rushed the staff were attentive and everyone enjoyed their food drink and had a lovely time especially my parents which is what it was all about !
Work retirement gathering. Lovely meal. Really nice staff. Had upstairs room
Great restaurant. Very traditional and good quality food. Lovely staff. Good value too.
Really wonderful little spot for a meal. Family and kid friendly. Food is excellent. Adult meals - the duck confit and the pate were delicious. Portions generous. Kids meals even more so! Great value for money for kids. And friendly helpful polite service. My picky eater gobbled it all up. And the photos are after she already picked off food!
We have been coming here for years. For Sunday lunch, not often enough. If looking for traditional meal this is the place. The restaurant is clean and tidy some people say old fashioned but that’s what we like, a truly independently run, with very reasonably priced meals. For Sunday lunch you pay for main which includes starter and dessert about 20 to 25 ish. Food is large portions hot and nice, nothing to flash but not boring. Ideal place for family gatherings. Highly recommend. Also I judge a place by its care of toilets and they are well maintained and clean. We all been restaurant and seen horrible toilets it shows the attitude.
Been here a few times in last year or so and not disappointed. The last time was for our ruby wedding anniversary in August and we couldn't have had a better time. Went for Sunday lunch with family and friends. Our table was decorated with red flowers and ruby napkins and our names and date of our anniversary was put on our menus. Great choice of traditional food on menu and all was delicious with large portions. The staff looked after us so well. Great value for money too. Highly recommended especially for a special occasion.
