Customer Review Summary
Pizza is the dish diners mention most, described as really nice with plenty of flavour, and a basement party buffet earned praise for its fries and pizza, including a gluten free option. Close behind is the Sunday roast, where one group praised the chicken and beef, the massive Yorkshire puddings and the extra roast potatoes, alongside bruschetta and cheesy garlic bread. Others mention steak night and a mid-week lunch with happy hour specials. Friendly, welcoming staff come up repeatedly, along with fair prices and a bistro downstairs with a large dining area upstairs. The criticism is sharper but less common. One reviewer found the carbonara lacking flavour even with added pepper and parmesan. They said the steak and other dishes at their table were only OK with unimpressive portions, and felt the food was not worth the price. Another called the food horrible and badly cooked. Even so, that table of 13 noted that every dish arrived at the same time despite a busy night.

“Visited today for first time, a group of five for Sunday roast. We had bruschetta and cheesy garlic bread which was delicious. We had chicken and beef roasts, I had the chicken without mash potatoes so ordered extra roast potatoes, others had chicken or beef, all were so impressed with each meal, we couldn't manage the extra roast potatoes. Yorkshire puddings were massive.We were too stuffed to order desserts. Highly recommended”

“I really like this restaurant, its a lovely little place with great staff were friendly and welcoming as soon as we steped through the door. The pizza I had was really nice and plenty of flavour. The food was well priced.”

“Lovely, unpretentious yet "classy" restaurant serving well made food at reasonable (for 2026...) prices. You can as easily bring a date, as a young family. Bistro downstairs, and large dining area upstairs.”
