    Food below average, literally felt like the just wanted you in and out. Food arrived too quickly from ordering which makes me think that a lot of it is pre-cooked on a Sunday. Shame as not the same level as other restaurants in the group.

    They were very busy and so perhaps that’s why the service felt a little chaotic. One of the meals came several minutes after everyone else’s, the drinks order was taken but all the drinks arrived one at a time which seemed odd. The cauliflower cheese was only lukewarm. The white wine was warm. The coffee’s were lukewarm, not hot enough to dissolve the lumps of sugar…no teaspoons given with the coffee, we had to ask and then we got one, long handled spoon so share between 2 people having coffee. The roast dinners were ok, meat was good and nice, thick gravy but the carrots hadn’t been cleaned properly…if you are serving baby carrots whole, the ends need to be cleaned properly. The staff were pleasant and there wasn’t a long wait for food despite it being busy. The kids enjoyed the outdoor play area.

    Had a lovely meal with a friend. The waiter, Henry, was very attentive and ensured we had everything we needed. The food was lovely, and served quickly, but we weren't hassled during the meal. A lovely evening.

    Disappointing meal today. Main courses were not appetising, and deserts were disappointing.

    Always super busy when the sun is out, but despite the long queue the food didn’t take too long and quality is lovely.
