Nice atmosphere and comfortable booth seating. Menu is small but reasonably varied although would have liked additional salad options (there is only 1) To be honest the food was ok without being outstanding - for the price I would have expected a slightly better food experience. Good sized serves - enough that we couldn't fit dessert in......Steak was perfectly cooked but would have liked a choice of sauces. My partner had the kangaroo which was quite chewy though seemed to be perfectly cooked (med rare) The sides were the best part of the meal. Crunchy roast potatoes and a nice zucchini salad.
