   Staff absolutely outstanding with kids. We had a baby and a 4 year old. It was the 4 year old's birthday and about 6 staff members sang to her. Good solid as usual. Wings and elephant burger always good. Prices done Jo slightly since our last trip a few months ago.

   Amazing chicken wings and chips! Blue cheese sauce is the best there is! Pinot was lovely aswell nice cold glass and all! Chicken wings are a bit expensive now but they are the best!

   We ordered calamari and the size was tiny… It was embarrassing to eat that starter

Just to clarify, the dish is intended as an individual starter, not a sharing portion. We appreciate your comments and will take them into consideration as we continue to improve our offerings. We hope you’ll give us another chance to provide a better experience next time! Best regards, E&C Team!

   Food was not all it was hyped up to be. Had to send back the Dirty Chicken dish which was just thrown together. About 6 small pieces of chicken in it.
