    Once again the team looked after us very well the wood was fantastic. Really enjoyed the scotch egg and salad. First time having that as I normally go for the duck. Lovely little touch being giving a card for our 20 year anniversary. Small but personal touches like that are what make the cheques a perfect place for us.

    My previous review said best steak ever. On this occasion I ordered exactly the same and asked for well done and no redness to the steak atall. It was cooked ok on the outside but very red with blood still showing on the inside. Everything else was good . At these prices like the money I paid was perfect I would expect the food to be perfect. Saying that though ,this is a lovely place and everything else was good

    Very enjoyable lunch today. Log fire burning and some great menu options to choose from. The restaurant was fairly quiet but we were looked after well by the serving team. Worth a visit if you are in the area.
