Reviews
"Been there twice. Both times drank a few beers and ate some finger food. First time, it gave me very bad gastro. The beers are basic. Nothing too exciting. We watched a rugby game. People standing up in front of the screen but staff not doing anything about it (despite asking them to have a word with them). The pool table is good. The screens are mostly good. One dodgy one. Bar staff not the warmest. Overall, I'd only go back if there was a big game on and I couldn't find anywhere else to see it. Has potential though."
"I hadn't been here for years and regularly used to eat here in the past. The service is wonderful and friendly. We arrived just before midday on a Saturday. I was blown away by how quiet the place was. Only 1 other diner with people casually dropping in eventually. The food was very nice and I would go back."
"One particular barman ruined the experience for 2 out of the 3 groups. Abusive to people for no reason, disgusting behavior. Even the Security man was shocked. Shame as it is a nice bar, 15 people won't be back. We didn't have a meal, just drinks."
"The lady who took my order was lovely and patient, let me take my time to decide, and food was at the table in a timely manner. Food tasted good. Had the gf option of roast for lunch (DID NOT REACT). Good experience all round"
"Took my daughter out for lunch. We are both so full. Prices are good, place is warm. Thought it might have been busier for school holidays. Mushroom sauce is on point. Meals came out reasonably quick as well."
