Went to an event they had on tonight. It was amazing. Staff were very attentive and friendly. The place had a really bubbly feel… the landlord and landlady seem to be really hands on, they made a great effort with me and the other customers. Will definitely be returning😊

We arrived 10 minutes before our table was booked and we were shown straight to our table which was lovely. We were given menus and shortly after, asked what we would like to drink. I was very happy, as the prices of the drinks, I believe, were pretty good, as added in the photos. I may add our seats ever very comfy and we had a lovey view. We were served our drinks and asked what we would like for starters and mains. All of the staff were very friendly and attentive. When the starter arrived, along side our child’s meal (as requested ), we were blown away. Delicious. The Han hock croquettes were so moreish. And the child’s meal was so beautiful I could have eaten myself. We then received our mains, of which we can hardly fault. Everything was really lovely and tasty, Our only complaint (and it is very minor)… my husband ordered the beef rib, of which he didn’t get a choice of how it was cooked. Although it was still lovely, there was many plates of food being bought out more to it liking (more rate) his meat was more well done rather than his preferred rare/medium rare). Other people’s meals looked much more pink, which he would have enjoyed much more. We also had desert, which all went down a treat. This place is a real hidden gem. We alll really enjoyed our meals, and will certainly be back again soon
