We were warned that we had limited time by phone and asked if wanted to start earlier. We sat down slightly before our booking time and had a leisurely lunch without being rushed. The food and service was excellent and we left in good time.

I thought some of the food was overpriced (steak and sides £40) and some reasonable (Fish and chips £17). Excellent service but an odd little bar. Very well located.

I only ordered a smoke salmon sandwich for lunch, which was ok, but the bread was very dry.
