Been coming here a couple of few times a year for the last 10 years at least, if we lived closer I’m sure it would be more regular 😊. Service, food and ambience were brilliant. Definitely would recommend and we will definitely be back.

This is our second visit in the last couple of months. The Sunday roasts are beautiful both in taste and presentation. The staff are extremely friendly and nothing is to much trouble.

The steak was not what was expected. There was a smell when eating it wasn’t cooked great and the quality was not good. The Cajun Paneer Skewers was absolutely delicious
