Passed by this restaurant for years. This Easter we stopped to check out the service, food and in general the atmosphere. Posh end (lookalike) at least the customers want to look like... Needed around 5 mins to get a welcome and a table. Plenty of tables were available by the window. We requested window seat, but been ignored ♂️ 1 mixed roast dinner and one fish and chips was our order with 2x Peroni and 1x Tonic. Fish was full with bones, though the quality was good. Not outstanding quality. Chips were hot, well enough portion. The ‘homemade’Tartar sauce was weird taste, didn’t like it. The first time and first ever place where I couldn’t finish my food. Something was just missing from there! Mixed roast was nice. The meat was good quality, but unfortunately the gravy was so tiny on the meal, we had to order some extra sauce (for an extra charge), but to be honest the waiting time was so long for that single gravy, almost finished the whole meal. Also, wasn’t the same, it was really runny, like water. I had an extra ‘chocolate bomb’ or whatever that’s called. Ideally, I can pour the hot chocolate on a chocolate ball and it opens or melting that and an extra chocolate fudge inside. This whole thing came out with a tiny tiny amount of vanilla ice cream. I mean it it was just a tiny portion, just like the fudge inside that chocolate ball. Funny thing, but the chocolate sauce wasn’t hot enough to melt the ball, so I had to give a slap for that to brake with a fork. It was something to amaze customers, but it wasn’t entertaining at all. Overthinking stuff. I’d be happier with a nice slice of fudge cake and a decent sized ice cream. After a bad beginning, the waiters were nice at the end. With the tip we were just about somewhere £70+. Don’t take it wrong, that could be a nice meal in town, too.

Lovely welcome from Jackie. The restaurant was warm and smelt lovely (from the logs on the open fire). The set menu had a great choice, and all 3 of us chose from this menu. The food was hot and tasty, there was a good selection of food to chiose from. There was good vegan choice too. The set menu is good value. The drinks and meals were great . We'll definitely come back Jackie took our food and drinks order she was helpful and made us all feel very welcome.
