We had 8 in our party for lunch. Chef Richard had organised some nibbles, which was a really nice touch. Everyone enjoyed the starters, and all the mains were cooked how we had asked. The staff were attentive, but didn’t rush us, which was great. Everyone in our party said they would definitely come back. Thanks to Richard and his team for a great afternoon. Paul & Claire

Lovely restaurant that we have visited several times and never been disappointed. The food is great and really good value. The service is excellent and friendly. There looks to be a lovely outside area but the weather hasn’t been good enough to try out it out yet! Would highly recommend.
