Great place, very quirky and cosy. We had lunch Caesar salad’s for lunch, the chicken was a bit dry and there wasn’t a great amount of sauce so had to ask for more, the staff were very attentive. Highly recommend the truffle chips. I’ll definitely be going back as really like the venue and it’s local.
