It was my wife’s birthday and the staff produced a cake with a candle which was much appreciated. The meal was excellent and we always love the great hall.

After a rocky start, volume on tvs not turned up for rugby. Once sorted it was grand. Although when match was over we were all hoarded downstairs where there was no room. A loss in revenue for Lark. People left who would have pleasantly stayed on upstairs drinking.
