We had a lovely catch up with friends, with amazing food.
Young man who served us was charming, polite and good humoured while being respectful.
Only small thing was, although the live music being played was fine it was fairly loud for a lunchtime. Otherwise it would have been 10's across the board.

Barman was friendly and efficient.
Our company did not eat there as we had pre-booked a tapas restaurant but were offered food.
We regularly go there for drinks.

Would like some more light meals on the menu. Used to like the steak sandwich for a lighter lunch. All meals quite heavy but very tasty just not always what I want

Had lunch and a catch up with a friend. The food was nice and good value for money. The only negative thing I can say is that I ordered a gin fizz but unfortunately there was no fizz - the Prosecco must have been opened for some time as the drink was totally flat.
