"We were seated promptly and received our drinks quickly, which turned out to be the fastest service we experienced all evening. The staff were genuinely friendly and did their best, but it seemed they often forgot about us since we had to approach them several times to follow up on our orders. We ordered the Mezze platter for four, but when it arrived, it was clearly a sharing plate for two. The waitress mistakenly thought we were sharing it among four people. Another platter was ordered quickly, but it took at least ten minutes to arrive. While I appreciate that it was prepared fresh, the warm pitas and other items on the first platter had begun to cool while we waited. Once we finished our starters, the waitress came to clear the plates and informed us that our main courses were ready. She asked if we wanted them held, but not wanting the food to sit and become lukewarm, we requested it be served immediately. Unfortunately, the chips were cold and had to be sent back, while the accompanying vegetables were only barely warm. I ordered the king prawn linguine from the specials menu, but the portion size was very small. When I inquired if this was a starter size, I was told it was the regular portion. The waitress kindly offered to check if anything could be done, and my partner even volunteered to pay for additional prawns if necessary. To their credit, they did increase the portion size without any extra charge. When our desserts finally arrived (we had to remind them we were still waiting), the Eton Mess came out looking like a complete mess, with no fruit as described on the menu. As a gesture of apology for the disappointing meal, we were offered complimentary coffees, but ultimately, we decided we won't be returning."

Lovely place with good ambience. Suitable for groups. Quiet enough to talk to friends.

Terrible experience! The food took way too long to arrive, the staff were unfriendly, and many items on the menu weren’t actually available without any prior notice. This was my second visit, and I was disappointed again. The only positive aspect was the beautiful location.

No record of our booking, bunged on another table with no table service. No one seemed to know what they were doing. Food was standard, nothing special. Looked rushed. Beer was flat and tasteless! However, the waitress that took my bar order was really nice! Other than that. Was ok!

I had a great experience overall! However, the meal took a bit longer than expected, and the staff was unfriendly. Many items on the menu were unavailable, and there was no prior indication of this. This was my second visit, and unfortunately, my first experience was also disappointing. The only highlight was the beautiful location. Voir le carte

Not impressed with having to initially pay parking. Understand it is returned and taken off the final bill, but if you have to go out and extend your stay, your food could be brought to your table and it would end up cold. You also have to break off a conversation which does not help the ambience. It would make me think twice about returning Thanks Jacki Paton

We arrived to find that our reservation had not been recorded, and we were seated at a different table without any table service. It seemed like there was some confusion among the staff about what was happening. The food was quite ordinary—nothing memorable. It also seemed like the beer was flat and lacked flavor. However, the waitress who took my order was really friendly and nice, which was a bright spot. Overall, it was just an okay experience.

we have a table for the holiday booked Monday, first pub I have ever entered, and there were two lines of people who are silent for drinks, so no good start! waited for 20 minutes until we were shown on our table and said waitress would be over to order drinks, waited 25 minutes and not wait waitress and no drink order! we were then told about the nice family on the table next to us that they were short workers, the menu was limited, as sold out allies and they had waited 2 and half an hour for their main course! so that we went and went elsewhere, like a few other tables, had been in this restaurant at numerous places and left very happy, but not this time, my advice will tell their custome...

We made a reservation for bank holiday Monday, and it was my first experience walking into a pub where two lines of people were waiting to get drinks, which wasn’t a great start. After waiting 20 minutes, we were finally shown to our table and told that our waitress would come over to take our drink order. However, we ended up waiting an additional 25 minutes with no one attending to us. Meanwhile, a friendly family at the next table informed us that the staff was short-handed, the menu was limited due to many items being sold out, and they had been waiting for their main course for two and a half hours! With that in mind, we decided to leave and find another place to eat, as did several oth...

Let me clarify: the staff were very friendly and did their best, but it felt like we were often forgotten and had to ask for things multiple times. We ordered the mezze sharing plates, requesting one for four people. When it arrived, we were surprised to see it was a plate meant for two, which the waitress thought we would share among four of us! We quickly ordered another plate, but it took at least 10 minutes to arrive. While I appreciate that fresh food takes time, the warm pitas and items on the first plate got cold as we waited. After finishing our starters, the waitress came to clear our plates and informed us that our main courses were ready. We requested that they be brought out imm...
