So, I booked a table online earlier in the day, turned up to be told that they couldn't find my booking because he had done all the online bookings the night before so hadn't updated the list, but he could "squeeze us in". Just 2 of us. By the time we left, I counted 31 empty seats so less than half full. Given menus and told to order at the bar and cutlery was "over there" if we wanted any! Being sat next to the bar, I ordered some drinks while deciding which steak to have, not a hard decision seeing as there's a choice of sirloin or ribeye.... Went with the sirloin. Asked me to pay when I was at the bar which I thought very unusual for a restaurant. Went to the table to get our knives/forks, surely the least they can do is set a table??? Took in the surroundings while waiting for the food, pink flowers all over the feature wall which looked out of place, terrible music which sounded even worse playing though what ever device they were using behind the bar. Food didn't take long to come and wasn't bad to be fair, alough it was served on a cold plate. Sauce didn't resemble any peppercorn sauce I'd ever had before and reminded me of baby puke. Ate and left without any sort of service such as being asked if the food was ok. Don't think I'll be returning

2 hrs after we arrived we asked where our main meals were. To be told the order list had been thrown in the bin. No discount was given for the long delay in our order. The only apology we had was from a 17yr old lad. Who tried his hardest to rectify the situation. Food was nice. But by this time we were all starving. 2 of the 11 in our party were vegan. The vegan main meal option was a bowl of chips. Or a starter of houmous and bread.

Bbq glazed wings were superb The steak was better than miller and Carter according to a family member. Cajun fries excellent and the home made slaw was again a delight. Great service too from all staff.

Looks a great restaurant, it's take away food you sit in for. Not much choice on the menu, food was just ok, specials such as kebabish was Donner meat in a sauce with onions and peppers ok nachos. great for a takeaway but wierd for a restaurant. Had a chicken burger but was just ok. Wouldn't go back. Think it's a younger person's restaurant maybe suits 19-25 yr olds.

I just visited this restaurant and had a very mixed experience. I started with two dishes from the starter menu, and I must say they were absolutely lovely—both were well-prepared and thoroughly enjoyable. The service throughout the evening was also commendable. The staff, especially our waiter, was polite and attentive, which made the initial part of the meal quite pleasant. However, the experience took a sharp downturn when my main course arrived—a penne carbonara. When it was served, I was genuinely shocked at the portion size. It looked like no more than four spoonfuls of pasta with a tiny amount of ham and no sign of cheese or cream, as you’d expect in a proper carbonara. I even asked the waiter if this was really the full portion, to which he kindly apologized. Upon taking my first bite, I realized the pasta was severely undercooked—practically raw. I politely asked the waiter to return it to the kitchen and requested a fresh plate with properly cooked pasta, a more generous amount of ham, and some cheese to make it look more presentable. Surprisingly, the chef came out personally to ask for clarification on what I meant by "undercooked" pasta and my other requests. I explained the situation to her, hoping for an improvement. She shouldn’t have even come out and asked me ‘what do you mean by make it look lively!?’ Just shows she’s an amateur chef! Ten minutes later, the same dish was brought back, but unfortunately, it was worse than before. It was clear the chef had simply refried the entire dish. The pasta was now overcooked and rubbery, and the ham was unpleasantly refried. Still no cheese or cream. After just two bites, I couldn't continue and decided to politely ask for the bill. It’s unfortunate to say this was the worst pasta I’ve ever had, especially at a restaurant that claims to serve Italian cuisine. Despite the dreadful main course, I want to highlight that the service from the floor and bar staff was excellent. Our waiter apologized numerous times and even offered to charge only half the price of the pasta, which I appreciated and accepted. I also left a tip, as the poor food quality was certainly not the fault of the staff. I will not be returning for food at this establishment ever again. They urgently need a more competent chef and better portion sizes to match the prices they’re charging.

Went for an early dinner, lovely food and staff would highly recommend and they were able to help with gluten free options - it was great!
