   First time eating at this restaurant. We sat upstairs and the ambiance was very pleasant. Both ordered steaks which were cooked as requested. I felt that mine had a bit too much pepper on. It did not bother me but I would rather have had the option of putting it on myself. However, both steaks were delicious and so were the chips. Dessert was just as good. We both enjoyed our meals and will be back.

   Had a fantastic dinner at Griddle Bar. The eel starter, recommended by the manager, was a standout—delicate, flavorful, and beautifully done. The bavette steak was cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. Big shoutout to the manager for his impressive knowledge and spot-on suggestions. Can’t wait to come back!

   Food and portion size was fantastic. We went on Sunday and had their specials board for roast beef and roast chicken. Service was poor. Server didn’t seem to know the menu and what was and wasn’t available. Also menu had changed but didn’t have the new menus. Specials board was only available downstairs and we were sat upstairs. Glassware on the table (we weren’t using them) were dirty and when pointed out they took a lot of the glasses away to be washed.

   Absolute shocking experience and highly disappointed, especially when this booking was for a special occasion and felt it totally ruined the day. Food took over an hour to come which was firstly off to a bad start. When it finally did arrive two meals were forgotten, two meals were incorrect and had the wrong egg type and mushrooms when it was noted no mushrooms. Food was barely warm and the supposed toast was bread, not to mention they had no sourdough as advertised and it was normal white bread. The portion sizes for the prices were disappointing and nowhere near worth the price, I’ve had more satisfying breakfasts in Sainsbury cafe. All in all I would never visit this restaurant again. I have never felt so strongly after visiting a restaurant to feel the need to leave a review but this was horrendous.

   3 of us ate here and the food was really tasty and reasonably priced. A couple of issues they bought my husband up the wrong dinner and to change it was going to be an extra 20 mins so he didn't eat what he ordered. The bill was incorrect and they tried to charge us for a different starter than we actually had which was more money. The staff sorted the bill out no problem, but it should have been correct in the first place. It was busy in there but there were only 2 members of staff waiting on tables and they seemed a but rushed. I'd definitely go back but maybe not on a Saturday night

    A nice meal, but a little expensive. Service a little slow.
