                        Nice energy and ambiance. Good entrees but sad they don't give free oat bread. Deserts were underwhelming. Waitstaff continually interrupted which is the biggest complaint. Drinks very expensive.

                        Fabulous food and great service made our family dinner a big success. Favorites were the Shepherd’s Pie, Cullen Slink, Fish Supper and all the desserts. Scotch egg was tasty but the yolk was overcooked to my liking anyway. Will definitely be returning soon!
