    Welcomed by Sophie to this newish restaurant. Highly recommend the Wagyu burger, thanks for the complimentary pudding for a birthday treat. Definitely will revisit.

    Couldn’t fault our experience, food was great, my bread and butter pudding was my only slight disappointment, I rarely have desert, this one was a bit stodgy, no nice crispy edges on the bread, couldn’t really identify the funny in it. Everything else made up for it. We used the facilities, the decor in the stair area needs refreshing.

    I had a lovely dinner with a friend last night. Would highly recommend the pork belly and the monk fish curry. Our waitress Tori who served us was very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. She’s full of smile and all the staff was great! Thanks Dennis for the delicious and mouth watering food as always! Never disappoint and will definitely be back again!

    Beautiful aesthetic inside! We had both Cauliflower wings & Squid (some of the best squid I’ve had) Beef roast main & Pork belly main - UNREAL! And couldn’t decide on pudding so had the sticky toffee, orange and chocolate tart & the carrot cake. All 11/10! Carrot cake sensational.
