Excellent as always. They really look after you and the food is excellent. My wife has a dairy and egg allergy which we let them know about in advance and they did everything they could to make sure we enjoyed our meal. Very much appreciated and of course we’ll be back.

Sometimes you get what you pay for, yes price a little higher than your average restaurant but the quality of the food and service is excellent. If your looking for something a bit different and a real treat I can highly recommend giving this a try, we had the 3 course menu and every plate was delicious from start to finish, will definitely be returning 5*****.
