We had the roast beef for Sunday lunch. The food was good and tasty. The roast beef was a little tough. I want so keen on the presentation with the beef on top of the veggies.

Service was very slow. Usually the place is outstanding but speed of service let it down today. We had to ask for the bill 3 times.

Delicious food, great service. My only criticism is that the tables are a little close together so can be difficult to focus on your own conversation

We had a lovely meal with excellent service and the glass of champagne for our friends birthday (with sparkler!) was a lovely surprise! Thank you for a wonderful start to our evening.
