Food was good but service was unacceptably poor. I would not recommend it at all and will not be returning

The food was tasty and good value. Unfortunately we were told they were understaffed but nevertheless our server was very good in trying to not let us wait too long. The restaurant though is very tired and dirty, definitely needs a refurbishment!

Excellent food and good atmosphere. However we arrived 15 minutes early and we were told there was no where to wait which was a little disappointing. Would still book again
