    Lovely warm restaurant for a cold January evening. Male waiter wasn’t great and certainly not as efficient as we are used to at this restaurant Sad no tiramisu on the menu 😢

    We pre-booked for Sunday lunch, which was wise as it was busy, but not noisy. The roast beef followed by tiramisu was excellent, as was the attentive service. We would certainly recommend it and visit again.
