Excellent all round

"Excellent all round. The food, as expected, met the varied tastes of our 9 person group and the variety in the menu is especially appreciated when it is hard elsewhere to have anything but a roast on a Sunday. The service was also extremely good with our waitress handling every request efficiently and pleasantly. I did deduct one star on value for money but the prices were not way above what is reasonable for what is provided. The bottom line is that we will be back." September 2025
