What Gatetoplate doesn't like about The Diggers Rest:

View all feedback. What User likes about The Diggers Rest:
we went on Friday afternoon, when a party of six, we were shown to our table, gave our drink order and looked through the menu. We ordered our decisions that came to eat. All six of us enjoyed what we had eaten, main thing and desserts. would go again. nice friendly staff, good eating, which is not to like. View all feedback.
