Customer Review Summary
Steak night draws the most praise, with reviewers calling the steak dinner special cooked to perfection and the onion rings and champ standouts, alongside a £10 lunch special with soup and generous portions. One diner found a different steak dinner only medium rather than medium rare and called other dishes bland and a mixer drink too sweet, calling it not special enough to return.

“We stopped in for a late lunch/early dinner. Great service, lovely friendly staff but not constantly in your face. The food was delicious, hot and well worth the money, £10 lunch specials that come with a cup of soup of the day if you want it. They don't skimp on portions and I didn't need to eat for the rest of the day. Will definitely be back”

“Thursday afternoon for the stake dinner day. Stake was good but more medium rather than medium rare, everything else in my opinion was lacking of salt at least, very blant. Overall good experience, polite service but i will definitly not come back anytime soon, as it wasn't anything special. Quick service and kngas mixer drink was nice but the other drink we have got was full of sugar. Way too sweet As reply to Knag's comment: Haven't seen your "sugar free" as option in the menue and sorry we don't read in minds. And yes, opinions are meant to be personal, it is my personal opinnion, can't speak on behalf of anyone... your comment seems a bit unprofessional though.”

“Called here for dinner on Wednesday steak night and decided to go for the steak dinner special for two at £50. The steaks were cooked to perfection. Amazing onion rings, mushrooms cooked beautifully. I had champ which actually tasted like champ and my friend had garlic cubes which were gorgeous. The staff were super efficient and very friendly. Would definitely recommend this spot for an excellant steak dinner - don't know of anywhere you can get such quality sirloin steak dinner at £25 per head. Well done 👏”
