    Ordered 3 Sunday lunches for a vegetarian and two non vegetarians! Service was excellent, the food was delicious and we ate in a nice, comfortable environment. Goes without saying that there was three empty plates and three very satisfied customers. Thank you.

    Food not bad, Service Ok. So noisy it was ridiculous couldnt hear each other despite sitting close together. It was busy which is fine but they need some carpets to deaden the sound. Bare floor low ceiling no chance. Just sitting in a very noisy canteen.
