"Came here for a Birthday Dinner last week and had a great experience. The menu was great, a good selection of Meals and Roasts (as it was a Sunday) and despite it being a Sunday evening everything was still available. The food was well presented and fresh I couldn't fault it. Service was great slightly slow but that's if I had to nit-pick something of the evening it would be that. The drinks and food are fairly priced and portions are great too. The atmosphere is very homely pub and the tables are nicely spaced so you're not sat on top of each other. I would definitely return for another meal here."

"Although my meal, in the end, was delicious, it was a torturous route to get there. Oh, and before I forget, I did send a message directly to the YR via their website ‘contact us’ facility on Sunday 24 Sept, but not so much as an acknowledgement which downgraded my review one star further. I have a dairy intolerance and telephoned in advance to check I could be catered for and was assured I could be. I ordered sea bass and was assured dairy free. It arrived covered in a sauce but again assured it was dairy free. I was suspicious so asked yet again and a second waitress went to “double” check. After a few seconds my plate was whisked away. I was with a group of friends but at no time was any one of us asked about allergies or intolerances. I could have been severely unwell and this is not just about me. I expect better. Room for improvement"

"A birthday meal with the family..and previous visits (a few over the last year) prompted us to return. This will be the last time though. Shocking...everything it was like being in Fawlty Towers. Seated quickly and the menu at the table were the only good things. 15 mins later we were attended to, to ask for drinks. We said we were ready to order food, as we had beeb waiting so long, but the waiter insisted on drinks being ordered first. Having gone around the whole table, the waiter asked why my wife was not ordering a drink...which she had already ordered. Seriously, there only 4 of us. Before leaving us, he then tried to take the menu away. 10 mins later, the drinks came out...only 3 ! Eventually got the 4th, and he preceeded to take our food order. 25 mins later, the starters came out. Calamari was seriously had the taste and texture of a thick rubber bands...deep fried. Gross. When the main courses came out, plenty of food for sure, but really salty spaghetti. Tried to grab waiter 's attention...simply ignored. We were just left, even though we were closest to the kitchen/bar area...with 3 empty glasses for the entire meal. You would like to think that someone with integrity, would ask why the finished plates had half the food remaining. Nope, not even a was everything ok? Won 't be back."

"The restaurant, while aesthetically pleasing both inside and out, is not one that I would recommend. During my lunchtime visit, it took a long time to be served even with their 'butler bell' system. It lacks sufficient vegan options, with only two main dishes on the menu. The vegan burger lacked creativity, and the risotto with sauteed oyster mushrooms was disappointing as it only included one slice of mushroom. The price was expensive for the quality of the meal, with the risotto costing £15.95 and a lime and soda costing £2.20. Overall, I was unimpressed and felt that I could have made a better meal at home. Service was lacking, and I would not return for another meal. Meal type: Lunch Price per person: £20–30"
