Not enough choice on mains for vegetarian plus dishes taken off the menu even though they still show online resulting in me choosing something i didn't really want and wasn't that keen on it when i was eating it.

Had the bottomless pancakes which were really good but needed more ice cream on the one option and more fruit on the other.

It’s half term it’s busy but we were seated when we wanted to, we requested the window. Got a lovely seat at the window and it wasn’t long before waitress came to us so service was good. The noise level was loud but to be expected with being half term all in all One of our regular little restaurants.

We ordered our drinks and our meal together and got the food first after about 35 minutes. I had to remind them about the drinks which then came quickly. Evidently there was only very hardworked person on the bar in a large busy restaurant
Maybe a staff member didn't show for work today?
The staff were all very nice, I just think there may not have been enough of them.
