Great staff, great homely atmosphere , the only problem was the tapas starter, three spoonfuls of houmous, tapenade and pesto with less than half a pitta pocket barely warmed up for £8 did not leave me hopeful for my main course throughout my 30 minute wait. Just feels like being swindled (for all it would cost to heap the plate with pitta I don't understand). Food was ok, points for having vegan options , veggie lasagne was tasty Kid-friendliness: Seems good, plenty of space Wheelchair accessibility: Might be limited but I'm sure they can accommodate on ground floor , not sure if they have a lift Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £20–30 Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Homemade Lasagna Recommendation for vegetarians: Somewhat recommend Vegetarian offerings: Vegetarian menu or section Parking space: Plenty of parking Parking options: Free of charge street parking
