Nice atmosphere and good service. Drinks are very expensive but wine was nice. My partner enjoyed his food very much. I enjoyed the cheese for dessert but found the main meal ie mushroom risotto unpleasant I'm sorry to say especially as the chef cooked it especially without garlic. There were no other vegetarian options which was disappointing. Felt a bit rushed to leave as told a certain time to leave. Assuming a later booking slot would address this? The bread rolls and crisps were delicious. We intend to return to give veggie choice (s) another go and hoping veggie option(s) are different next time as there will be more of us !!

Now we have moved to Norfolk, we will be able to visit more than the once or twice each year when we were visiting family. As always, the food was exceptional along with the service from the team who looked after us. Kind regards Paul & Caroline
