Very nice restaurant with delicious food. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I had bariatric surgery last year so I cannot eat large amounts of food and on Good Friday they had a set meal option of two or three courses. However, when I asked and explained I could only eat a small portion, they were very kind and said I could order something different, even a children's meal if I needed. The food is delicious and a good portion size.

A lovely afternoon lunch. My wife and I visited this afternoon and were truly impressed with the food and service. I had the venison pie and it was one of the nicest pies I’ve eaten for a long time. I also ordered a side of onion rings and I was not disappointed. My wife had a beetroot and falafel ciabatta and again it was delicious. Wonderful atmosphere and service was great. We will definitely return

This is a very good restaurant. Pies are the main items on the menu but there are other choices. The pies however are very, very good and my advice, unless you don't eat pies, is to have one of them. The pies are excellent, with very nice pastry and a choice of interesting fillings, and they are served with lots of very tasty gravy and lovely mashed potato. One portion of the side vegetables will be enough for two people unless one, or both, is very hungry. The haslet sausage roll starter is very good but it is a generous size and one of these shared between two as a starter would probably be enough. The staff were all very friendly. There is a relaxed atmosphere and we had a very enjoyable dinner.

This place really cannot manage large table bookings. We booked for a table of 26 for a Saturday evening in April for a joint 30th and 50th. The lady I was dealing with advised in the phone we needed to supply menu choices a month in advance, I clarified she meant a month & she confirmed a month. I thought this was quite far in advance but did as was requested. When I called with a query it was an absolute nightmare to find our booking. The same person then told me I had sent the choices to early & I need to give a weeks notice. I was then told menus are changing & is picked the wrong menu (I hadn’t. I also hadn’t got the month/week wrong as I checked our internal cctv and our conversation was there). After lots of blaming me, she eventually accepted that it was probably due to her language barrier. Every time I had cause to speak to her it was a challenge. On the phone call she kept saying our booking was Sunday & given all the previous pains, I was really nervous we’d even have a table to sit down at! Anyway, we arrived earlier than 5:30 as we advised we’d like to decorate. Our tables weren’t set out yet, which was fine, we just decorated around them. The staff in the sun restaurant were lovely but the lady who dealt with our booking I felt was very rude & not welcoming in the slightest. In fact, she made us feel like we were a huge inconvenience. I sensed there wasn’t a lot of cohesion with her and the rest of the team. Our starters came out and midway through eating mine I was interrupted to ask if I could double check the menu choices. I then got the impression the original lady hadn’t been great at communicating with the kitchen. By the time we’d gone through choices my starter was cold. I also requested one garlic bread to share between two kids & two cheesy garlic breads. 3 normal garlic breads came out. The mains did all come out fine (thankfully) but all the additional sides were missing so there was a wait for those. The desserts were just plonked anywhere & at this point any feelings I had of not being welcome here had been cemented. It was like no one could be asked with us anymore. We also had no staff come back to check how puddings were so I couldn’t advise we’d been sent out an extra cheeseboard (their error). I was also told I’d need to supply paper plates for the birthday cake which was no issue but then they brought out plates & these were pretty grim & I had to clean them before use. When it came to pay and I highlighted to the main lady that we’d been charged for additional garlic breads and cheeseboards she would not accept she was wrong. Argued the toss over everything (which I experienced throughout this process) & she made the whole experience quite draining. We obviously didn’t pay for stuff we didn’t order but it was like climbing a mountain to get it taken off the bill. The whole experience felt very disorganised and chaotic. I don’t think a single person wished any of the birthday girls happy birthday either, just adding to the pretty rubbish service we received. I have put the poor experience down to them having a really busy Saturday and we were just unlucky. The guy who came and checked our orders was fabulous, great service and attitude and really apologetic. But the woman, who I think is manager, absolutely awful. I’ve had better service from McDonald’s than from her. I’ve also attached an email reply from her, you can get the gist of what she’s saying but it is a good example of how unclear her communication was through the whole process and I just guessed a lot of it. Really bad experience for what was a really lovely occasion. Would not advise anyone to book here for a party over 6.

We enjoyed a great Lunch in the outdoor seating area which is dog friendly so our pooch was very happy. We ordered starters and mains and we were not disappointed. In particular my son and I had the kfc burger, glorious in its own right but the chips with it were sublime. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the lasagne and again the fantastic chips. We couldn’t fit a pudding in as we were all full to bursting. The service was excellent too. The staff were very attentive and we wanted for nothing. A fantastic experience, thank you
