    Originally, we wanted outside and were told it was fully booked but on arrival we were given the option to go outside as someone had cancelled, we were pleased with the offer

    Upon arrival we were welcomed by a friendly professional staff member, shown to our table. The ordering process was explained clearly. Bar/: food staff were polite ,friendly & professional. Our meals arrived very quickly, piping hot ( we appreciate this) & absolutely delicious. The size of meals is very good, a hearty meal without excess which is generally wasted. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to have a meal prior to attending a show.
