    The staff was great, attentive to detail, engaging, fun, and respectful. Saddle room is my go-to whenever I can. A credit to the management team at the Hotel and the Head Chef.

    Delightful menu showcasing great ingredients. We always enjoy dining at The Saddle Room. The service is attentive without being overbearing. The wine list by the glass is well chosen. The portions are well judged so that we feel full but not stuffed. We especially enjoyed the lamb on this occasion.

    I had an excellent dinner on a Monday night. The four of us had superbly cooked steaks and a few bottles of wine and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
