   The level of customer service at this establishment was truly unparalleled. Each member of the team exuded genuine warmth and attentiveness, ensuring an exceptional experience. Even as we lingered until closing time, we never felt hurried—quite the opposite, in fact.Every dish we sampled was a culinary triumph, but the charred onions were simply sublime—a delightful blend of flavors that left a lasting impression. This restaurant seamlessly combines impeccable hospitality with gastronomic excellence, setting a gold standard for fine dining. Highly recommended !!

   The food was average so for the price you pay, you are better off going to a pub. I had beef tartare for starters and the beef was bland, the egg yolk on top was hard and the crisps were so tough I almost broke my teeth trying to eat them. For mains I had pan fried fish of the day which was okay with some buttered potatoes and samphire. Pudding I had sticky toffee pudding which was average but could do with less sugar. Wine was great to be fair. French grand de cru saint emilion. service was good and they were very attentive but again food was so average.

   Sunday dinner a disappointment. Food tepid and Yorkshire pudding stone cold. Vegetables overcooked so a bit of a school dinner experience. Not what I expected! Disappointed

   Thank you for sharing your feedback, and I’m sorry to hear that your Sunday dinner didn’t meet expectations. We know that a warm, freshly served roast is essential, so it’s disappointing to hear the food temperature and quality weren’t up to our usual standard. We’ll pass your comments on to the kitchen team to make sure we’re delivering the quality experience our guests expect. Thank you again for helping us improve—your feedback is really valuable to us.

    Took 30 minutes to take a drinks order, food was lukewarm - tasted nice, but unfortunately felt like a lack of care was taken in preparation Purports to be fine dining, but service needs to be much better to be considered that
