                                      The service today was very slow indeed. Our table was booked for 12.00. We waited quite a while for our to be taken and it was 1.00 before we received our food. This is unacceptable.

                                      Really really good experience. Two shared the Sunday sirloin roast, another the fillet and I had the special sirloin. All very good- steak cooked as requested (rare/medium rare etc). Good bottle of Merlot for £26 or so. Big thumbs up !
