“Haven't visited this place for ages, but thought a group of my friends and I would revisit, after watching a show at the Regent Christchurch I had a really nice pork tomahawk on the famous sizzling skillet with skin on fries, washed down with a pint of Thatchers followed up with a millionaire's ice cream sundae(very overindulgent I know, but I thoroughly enjoyed it!!) As I believe so did my wife and friends, made all the sweeter by the fact that my wife could use her blue light card to get to 10% off mains, and one of my friends( for logging onto your app got further 25% off around it doesn't drinks!!!”
