They pour a perfect pint of Guinness for all you stout fans out there. However, I must say that the food was a disappointment. The smoked salmon starter tasted like a supermarket packet salmon with olives and just half a slice of toast. The steaks were all undercooked and the mushy peas on the fish and chips were dry. The desserts were also not up to par, with some strange orange topping on the brownies. It's a shame because the restaurant is in a great location. I would recommend this place for drinks, but not for food.

The staff was unfriendly and unhelpful from the beginning to the end. Our reservation was not properly recorded. My friend's wife even recognized the voice of the man at the reception from a previous phone call, but he denied it.

The latest owners (Youngs brewery) removed all the drinks customers liked and at the same time hiked prices to unrealistic levels. proof being tge place is almost empty most of the time after once being a lively and friendly place. So tonight we revisited to meet friends. wish we hadn 't! Despite the wife phoning to book they had no record, great.. not! Drink at bar while waiting, eye-watering prices and still rubbish choice. The menu is very uninspiring to put it mildly. The wife is a veggie and the only thing that she fancied was Maccy cheese. they didn 't have any!! not great... again. so chose the food, fish and chips £17. portion size was very disappointing and could have gotten better quality at much less at the chippy across the road. then to desert, oh wait, they don 't have all of them either (not a lot of choice anyway) OK let 's have coffee, oh can 't have that as the previous waitress has already cleaned the machine despite there still being customers in the restaurant???? Asked for bill and brought up our observations, the waitress said they coukd have made an instant coffee... if we had adjed for it?? wtf?? she really couldn 't have cared less and once we paid she abruptly turned and walked away. Great customer service... NOT. would we go back? definitely not would we recommend it? definitely not Note... 100yds away is wetherspoons Admiral Byng food is equal quality to what I had tonight at fraction of price, drinks are half the price.
