This restaurant cooks with soya bean oil rather than rapeseed, which suited my wife's dietary intolerance. It did take a while, however, for the restaurant to identify the oil they use.

Very close to the pretty Bushey Rose Gardens with plenty of free parking nearby.

We all enjoyed a cooked breakfast although the sausages weren’t very nice, cheap cafe sausages rather than quality ones. The staff were polite and friendly. We liked the decor and the Christmas decorations. Would return again.
