I give it a 5-star rating and will definitely come back. I lived just across the street for two years and never visited, and I really regret that now!

So far the best steaks on high street all 9 dishes were to rave about and not to mention the 1.5 L of red wine in offer for an excellent price . Well done!

Following the doors to enter the restaurant, I was warmly welcomed seated and browsed over the menu. With the classic pub favourites, the head chef clearly has embraced his ability to take a spin on the local favourites. Taking me back to my European adventure my eyes focused on the Vienna veal Shintzeal. The wait time was comfortable to allow conversation whilst building up hunger. The atmosphere ranged from families enjoying a night out, friends and family and couples. Clearly a crowd pleaser. The decor was sophisticated, refined but like coming home to your families leather couch. Around the tables, along the walls series of photographs gave character. When my meal arrived I was taken but to the smells of creamy potato salad, crumbed veal and a generous serving of lemon to drizzle over. The meal itself was satisfying and lingered in my mouth, the bowl of serving was awkward, dull and hard rest my cutlery during the meal. The conclusion of the evening was smooth, professional and a warm welcome back made the experience a fond memory for choice of a good pub meal. <br/ <br/ Great job, can't wait to return!

Not fine dining, but a place that offers comfort food, friendly service, cold beers and a decent wine list and meets the needs of the local, and not so local, community.
