An enjoyable evening trying new share-plate dishes - some were excellent and some a little less so. Will definitely return to work through more of the menu.

We had a lovely table for two by the window, a lovely service staff attended to us and was super lovely and helpful. We had the soup of the day as a starter and a share plate main of roast lamb with root vegetables. It was absolutely fantastic!

Steak is 100% worth it. So is the pizza! Make sure you book though.
