Customer Review Summary

Diners most often praise the food, naming the tapas range, the egg royale, the chicken liver pate and freshly made chicken goujons, with the starters singled out as lovely. One reviewer calls the steak great, several describe the staff as friendly and attentive, and the wine selection and comfy booths get mentions, along with prices a few call reasonable. Mains draw the sharpest criticism. One Father's Day set menu diner found the topside of beef incredibly fatty and the cauliflower cheese watery. Another found the steak in a ciabatta tough with little meat and the chicken fajitas wrapped in a strange coating, and a third found bits of carrot in a steak pie and a small piece of fish. One reviewer says a server seemed unwilling to be there and grunted when asked for the bill, and another says a waitress never asked about allergies. Even the less impressed diner says they would return for the lunch special or just for cocktails.

    “Amazing steak!! Wasn’t expecting much it was actually great! Food is definitely 5 stars. Service wise the waitress never asked me about possible allergies, I was disappointed with that. The other waiter was nice and polite. Prices are good.”

    “A very average lunch. The young guy serving us very obviously didn't want to be there. We all have those days but unfortunately in this industry it becomes very obvious very quickly. He effectively grunted at us when asked for the bill and not a word uttered when clearing away plates. No 'are we all done? How was everything?'. Just silence. The food wasn't up to much either unfortunately. We had chicken fajitas which had a very strange coating, and a steak ciabatta. The steak was really tough which was either over cooked or/and a poor cut of meat. There also wasn't much steak. The rest of the ingredients on the sandwich were nice. Given it was £12/13 for just that with no chips/rice, I would expect better quality and more meat. Definitely wouldn't be rushing back.”
