We arrived at 5.45 for our reservation at 6pm, we were told our table number and left to find it on our own. Would have been good practice to be taken to our table. The order was taken straight away but it was 45minutes before our starters arrived, have to say the starters were good. We then waited and waited for our main meals, after about 30 mins the waitress came and asked us to confirm if we had had our starters as the kitchen for some reason had done them again? A man then came over and said our mains were now being cooked, this was now another 30mins or so later, he did compensate us with a drink each on the house. Still we waited and eventually the mains arrived. My husband had the peri peri chicken and it was awful, it had been flattened that much it was the thickness of a piece of cardboard, they had over cooked it so much that it was inedible, and in places black where burnt, his peas were like bullets needless to say he left it. I had rag pudding and it was bland, looked like and tasted like a frozen processed pudding not very appetising. When we came to pay the man asked us if everything ok to which we replied not really and explained why to which he replied I don’t know what’s happening because there were 5 of them in the kitchen. We thought after reopening that there would have been an improvement all round sadly mistaken. We will not be going back

Great service & lovely staff. Massive food portions so be warned. The cocktails are two for £10 .. great value. We've been lots of times and never been disappointed. Would highly recommend it.

Good food but disappointed that at 3pm on a Sunday afternoon they had no chicken or beef Sunday roast.

Visited on sun 2nd feb. Disaster! Group of 4 had meals for my 8 year old daughters birthday. I was the only person to have the chicken and chorizo pizza. Ate 3/4 of it and had to make a mad dash to the bathroom and vomited everything back, stomach pains etc. Informed the staff which weren't too sympathetic and in way of apology took only my food off the bill. Didnt argue about it as i needed to get out of there. We have been here many times before and always enjoyed. Very dissappointed ☹

Brilliant service and wonderful food! Always a warm welcome and very accomodating.

Such an amazing place. We are not regulars, but felt like they knew us before our mains arrived. The chef came out to meet people and we couldn’t tell him how good the food was because our mouths were still full of delicious explosions of flavour. The blood orange salad is a must if you’re having some slightly heavier dishes. The arancini - AMAZING. Local burrata - literally dripping with deliciousness. Everything on the menu was perfect and I can’t wait to go back. Feel free to book a table, you don’t want to miss out.

Excellent food and service

Fantastic food, fantastic service, would highly recommend.

A lovely restaurant just round the corner form the theatre, food was fabulous, good sized portions, service was good and reasonably priced. First visit but wont be our last :D

Lovely atmosphere and fantastic staff together with a great birthday meal - our thanks to everybody, unforgettable

This was our second visit in 2 weeks. We love coming back! Good food, well served, personable staff, lovely atmosphere and good sized portions.

Fantastic food and service can not fault it will definitely be back

The food was excellent and good value for money,however the service was very poor, whilst wiring for the carvery, no chef in attendance yet two kitchen staff hastily preparing Just eat delivery service meals,after the queue increased eventually a clearly under pressure last came to carve the meats, after a considerable wait for the carved meat we were then met by another wait for fresh vegetables only to be hijacked again by the Just eat brigade. Customers were talking about the poor service back at their tables, some even vowing to go elsewhere, not a good advert despite the good food.

We came for breakfast, it was very nice with lots of choice, the only let down was the coffee

Visited this restaurant prior to a theatre visit and had the Early Bird menu. Both food and service were excellent, and it was very good value for money. The portions were huge, and my only suggestion would be that they offered two courses as well as three. We were rushing to make the theatre on time and as the portions were so huge we could have done without the dessert. However, it was all delicious. The wine was good value too.

Lovely food, great service, in a friendly and lively atmosphere.

Enjoyed a delicious pre- theatre lunch on Saturday before the ballet. All was delicious. Excellent service. Thank you.

Arrived at 8.05 having booked a table and sat down almost straight away. we ordered food and yes staff were very friendly and attentive but once we had had the starters they seemed happy to keep serving us drinks but at 9.45 we had to ask where our main courses were. The chicken dish in cream sauce came in a tomato sauce and the salmon dish, which came with rice, we asked a for without mushrooms and it came with mushrooms. Plus we asked for a side of potatoes and we ended up with two lots of potatoes and no rice. We pointed these issues out to the Manager who did indeed rectify this problem to our satisfaction. It was just a shame that it did put a bit of a damper on the night.
