Customer Review Summary
Servers are the most repeated draw, described as friendly, attentive and polite, with one praised for arranging another table so a party could all sit together. Food follows close behind. One pair called the fry up breakfast the best they had had, a midweek two-course deal came with generous portions, and reviewers mention good choices for gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian diners. A baby shower group found the staff helpful and the food unreal, one reviewer notes the bar area is dog friendly, and another is looking forward to trying the Sunday roast. The criticism centers on the kitchen. One diner found the starter overly greasy and the meatballs lukewarm yet dried out, with the katsu chicken only ok. A former regular reports choking on a bone in the ham and lentil soup and finding more bones in it, and says the valentine special cocktail was very slow to arrive. Even the diner let down by the meatballs still called the server excellent.
