Ate here on Saturday 4th February for the first time. It had been recommended by a former work colleague of my partner and as he's a butcher we thought it would be OK to try. We had a long journey ahead of us so booked a table for 3 for 6.30pm and fell through the door at opening time. There's a nice bar and a spacious yet cosy lounge with big sofas and comfy chairs. Lounge and Restaurant was a bit of an off-putting description for me but that's what it is and it was a very pleasant surprise. I had to settle for Black Sheep but it was well kept and there was a good choice of draught lagers. Staff couldn't have been more welcoming, friendly and helpful and we sat with our drinks whilst looking through the menu. The place was cold as the heating had failed, it was sub-zero outside and little more inside. We were told that they were trying to do something about it and after enduring the cold for maybe thirty minutes a battery of electric heaters arrived as friends and family rallied round to keep the show on the road. Food was excellent, fresh and well cooked. My one quibble would be that it was over generous and the huge dishes of chips and salad were overwhelming and so some was wasted. Nevertheless we shall most certainly be back. This local restaurant deserves support and it was really busy by the time we left despite the appalling weather conditions. We'll definitely be back soon !!!!
Lots of parking spaces and dress code I should say is smart casual. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and quantity on offer. read more
