Nice atmosphere in Thomas Madden room ,the new table layout makes a pleasant improvement. The duck starter was tasty and very well presented as was the beef main course. AS for the dessert, how can you go wrong with apple crumble topped with a generous serving of ice cream !! Bliss. White wine very well priced and excellent value. As usual the serving staff were friendly and professional. We drive 80 Km to have lunch/dinner at the club which says it all
