Great pun to the outskirts of city centre, lots of spaces with a presentable welcoming image. Plenty of choices on the menu with a quick turnaround for lunch time. One thing to mention is the food quality which can be improved, had the chicken kebab which had the salad dripping juices on the pitta bread.

Great food and service. We came as a family of 5. Everyone left with a full happy stomach. Definitely a restaurant you will enjoy.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. I felt that the prices were reasonable. We ordered a pie and some fish and fries. Both were delicious. Lots of seating. A good selection of beer 🍺 and ciders. There’s no outdoor seating as far as I know.

Wonderful little pub/restaurant, really delicious and reasonably priced for what you get.

The starters we had was the popcorn chicken and the soup of the day, for the main we had gammon steak and the cowboy burger all full of favour and delicious.

The drink selection was varied doing good deals on cocktails and beer on tap.

This is right at the entrance of Westgate so is ideal if you need a break while your shopping, my one downfall would be I ordered 4 drinks but I only got 3 possibly because the server didn't hear me very well or had forgotten.
