I had lunch with my daughter today and we shared a few starters. The food was delicious and the presentation was excellent. Well done to the cook Freddy for such tasty food. So much thought and care was taken with the presentation and everything was cooked just right. Definitely will visit again.

Absolutely amazing night, had my husband’s 50th birthday celebration here and it was the best night. Buffet food was delicious, and the staff were so friendly. They couldn’t do enough for us, it was great to have them share the night with us. Lauren has been so amazing with planning the event and will be missed. Mikey, thank you for everything, we’ll see you soon! Thanks also to the bar staff on shift on Saturday 6th July, (sorry not sure of everyone’s names) you are all so friendly, and welcoming. Hope you enjoyed the chocolate lol!

Worse Sunday roast ! Ordered a lamb shank had to used a knife to cut it ! meant to come off with your fork ! potatoes were deep fried nearly broke my tooth vegetables were hard didn’t have any seasoning! Told the staff at the end really should have sent back the food but being easter thought what’s the point ! manager reply saying to email him so i emailed him and what a surprise no reply ! He see the pictures and thought what can i say to this customer !

Waiting and bar staff were incredibly nice and couldn't do enough for you. The food is a little pricy but it's excellent quality and large portions. I have a really good appetite but couldn't manage all of my main meal (Chicken Mixed Grill). I, of course, managed a dessert, though.

We popped down while we were having a walk for a drink, but it was more of a kind of sitting place. There was too much ice on my cider; unfortunately, I struggled to drink, and the chip portion was tiny, but the staff was friendly and helpful.
