The food is great and good value. The restaurant is geared for large family groups which is fine but if in a smaller group it's particularly noisy, so best option is to go after 7.30pm. It was a shame that children were allowed to run freely unsupervised throughout the entire restaurant. Would be good to have an option for smaller groups, i.e. a corner/segregated section. Otherwise great food and nice décor.

It’s a bowling club which has been renovated, there’s not much more to say about that. The food is decent maybe a little over priced. I got the arancini balls which were flavoursome but really dry. Feedback on other meals: The schnitzel was a good size and tasty. The steak was ‘decent’. The chips were slightly over cooked and seemed a bit greasy. The pizza’s (which I’ve had before) is great. I would stick to the pizza!
