The carvery is the best we have had with excellent produce used and a brilliant variety of vegetables. The meat is expertly prepared and plentiful. The only downside is the cost and felt it was slightly overpriced and had certainly increased for the Xmas period - same food , same service should equal same price as a few weeks previously.
