The food was amazing beautifully cooked, full of flavour and absolutely no complaints from anyone in our party of 10, which says a lot. One of my daughters is vegetarian and had no issues at all finding something suitable to eat. The menu was clearly labelled, easy to read and had lots of options available, which was really appreciated.
The atmosphere was lovely and the service was fantastic from start to finish. Everything was handled so well and the staff made the celebration feel really special.
We brought my daughter’s birthday cake with us and they happily kept it in the fridge for us as requested, which was especially appreciated with the heatwave we’re currently having☀️ We also used our Tesco vouchers with no problems at all, making everything super easy and stress free.
We even offered some birthday cake to the staff afterwards and they appreciated it so much...such a lovely team and genuinely warm atmosphere throughout the evening.
Everyone left happy. Easy 5 stars from us and we will definitely be returning! 💛
