Reviews Summary
Diners often praise the restaurant for its extensive breakfast buffet and friendly service, with special mentions of attentive staff members like Vicki and Leon. However, some reviews highlight inconsistencies in food quality, particularly with steaks, and occasional slow service. The atmosphere is described as a bit gloomy by some, but overall, it's considered a good value for families and those seeking hearty meals.
"A delightful breakfast buffet experience on Friday 14th. Went there without any reservation however it was fully booked, requested to wait and their amazing manager Leon has offered us to temporarily sat at the bar while waiting for the next available table. (Where in-fact it took us about 5mins wait to have our table) There are two menu options of breakfast and reasonable price. Tried both continental and cooked. Must not miss breakfast offer!"

"Had a lovely experience a few days ago for our anniversary Vicki made it quite memorable for us with a lovely atmosphere and conversation they decorated our table nicely for it as requested for our anniversary they definitely did good with the box of chocolates and petals on the table, the food was amazing maybe a bit more cheese sauce on the nachos but nothing major and definitely a good option to add to the steaks would be peppers and mac n cheese as that’s really popular with steaks but overall amazing experience. Coming from someone that has worked for 12 years in hospitality I can tell a good server and how long they’ve had in the background which I was right in predicting how long she’d worked in the industry based on how welcoming and upbeat she was we had a nice conversation with her a few times so she definitely did her job well and hope she gets on well with University. We’ll hopefully be back again in future. The lady that seated us I could tell had probably been working in hospitality for a while as could have been a little more welcoming but not a big deal I know when a servers having a bit of a rough day so hope she was ok also but glad with the overall experience did hope for more understanding of the issue of the 25% off as I did sign up for it but didn’t receive an email and didn’t know about needing a code after 48 hours so maybe that should have been made clearer on the discount to do 48 hours in advance but other than that was a lovely time thanks to Vicki and the great food and drinks. Would have liked my ribeye a little more pink as I like mine rare but was still nice just a bit more medium I think it was but still really nice."

"Lovely meal and catered for a large group last minute yesterday as we got cancelled on July another venue. Lovely staff, we even had our own area so the kids could enjoy too.
I had king prawn starter, with sea bass to follow. My child had pasta, with corn on cob and peas, and my partner had fish and chips."
