I went to this restaurant with a group of 8 people. Three of us ordered the steak medium rare, but 2 of them came out well done. Unfortunately, they were out of croquettes as a starter, and when my friend wanted to order the pie, they were also out of that. The beer was delicious, and the service was very friendly and attentive. They also let us split the bills, which was a nice change!
Great selection of beers and drinks. Food ranged from good to excellent. The ploughman's platter is recommended as a great starter to share. And service was attentive enough without being too intrusive on a quiet Monday night.
Being Christmas time, the place was crowded, and it was a bit too noisy to have an easy conversation. But the food was good, the service friendly, and the pre-theatre dinner package reasonably priced.
The portion sizes of the food were a bit small, especially the mashed potatoes that came with the chicken pie. However, the service from the wait staff was exceptional. Thank you! Book a table now
The food was excellent as was the setting. Our waitress was friendly and attentive but unfortunately when she went on a break we became invisible to the other staff member!
We had a fantastic meal for the three of us in between Harry Potter sessions. The service was friendly and the food was delicious. There were also great options for kids.
Better pub food than expected and the parmas are huge. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered, definitely coming back! The drink selection was good and had chill vibes
Kids loved their food. Especially the ice cream! Adults’ food not bad either. Good service from those at the bar and upstairs in the restaurant section Book a table now
