Came here with my husband. When we visited we saw that it was a very dirty restaurant, recently checked their government hygiene rating and lo and behold it's a 1/5 having been inspected in September!!!! They are one step away from being shut down. Disgusting, will never return.

Please dont waste your money at this joke of a place, if i could mark it as 0 i would. Had to wait almost 40 mins for carvery to be filled up, would expect table service quicker than that. When finally told it was ready was still potatoes missing. The meat was nice but the Veg was under cooked could loose a tooth eating it, the yorkshire pudding had the consistancy of a wet sponge and the mash, well how can you get it so wrong, it tasted like they had poured all the fat out of the meat into it, it was disgusting. This is the 3rd time i have tried this establishment and has been terrible everytime. I only returned because it is said to have new owners. Like in the title avoid avoid avoid

Terrible service, we waited 50 minutes between starter and main (even though we only ordered burgers) and I am certain it only arrived because I went to the desk to enquire. The food was not worth with the wait.. burger served on the cheapest bun imaginable, both my husband and the gentleman on the next table left their greasy bread, not great considering the price. We ordered onion rings for side which arrived anaemic and on a saucer when we had virtually finished our meal...bear in mind the restaurant was not busy having only four tables seated. All in all if you want terrible service, below par burgers and vinegary potatoes masquerading as patatas bravas this is your place. Hugely overrated and extremely disappointing

After pre booking our food for our meal I thought the service would be speedy and everything would be correct. My starter of halloumi was barely cooked and the courgette was raw and bitter. Then my veggie burger main course was not good at all. The burger was a frozen one anyone could get from a supermarket, it was very dry. My sweet potato fries were swimming in grease and were very soggy. I asked about a pineapple chilli relish that was supposed to come with the meal but was told the order for it hadn't come in. I assumed this also must have been the case with the Parmesan, ciabatta bread and beer other members of the party ordered and didn't get. To say it was a Friday night and we had already told them what food we wanted, they were not prepared at all. I was extremely disappointed, as were other people at the table. And unfortunately I will not be returning. However, the servers were polite and friendly the whole night, I couldn't fault them.

Went here recently for lunch and wow.. It really is awful! First of all, the tables were absolutely disgusting, covered in wax and sticky they clearly had not been cleaned before we sat down. The side plate stuck to the table when we tried to move it. Cutlery was dirty could have done with a polish. Food was bad, oily and tasted very bland. My husband went up to pay and waitress was sat in bar (on break maybe? on her phone and didn't notice us and there was no other member of staff in sight so had to interrupt her to pay our bill. Overall very bad, would not recommend.
