The Staff are a credit to the Management. A very welcoming, warm and friendly place. Very tasteful background music that had us bopping in our seats. They even provided throws to keep us warm should the weather change. A scrupulously clean environment I'm looking forward to my next visit. Well done 👏
They have parking available but we had to park near a residential property since it was full. It was a pretty cosy atmosphere and they had ample seating available.
The hot and spicy wings had a good masala however the meat was pretty bland. The steak and ale was pretty good, we enjoyed the gravy. The Thai green curry was surprisingly authentic however the quantity could be a little bit more, the curry was too little for the rice provided.
The brownie with ice-cream was delicious and the perfect amount.
