We went for Sunday lunch & all 5 of us happy. I had fish as main course & three nice pieces, which is more than you usually get nowadays. The service was efficient, but the room was full, so a little slow, but no complaint. The deserts were nice & solid, which again is not always what you see. The chocolate crunch bar was so good we got an extra to take home. I've been before, but always at night & first lunch experience, & will return. So, a solid 4.5 out of 5 stars.
