                        Service was brilliant however the food was poor. 1. The menu advertised on both the website and FB page were out of date so when we arrived we were extremely disappointed to find half the advertised menu! We ordered 3 of the ‘starters’. Chicken wings were ridiculously small, garlic bread was dry. Steak was sent back due to being tough. Then waited 25 minutes for another meal. Service by all staff was good but unfortunately we won’t be back! £100 down the drain
