"Fantastic food and drink with brilliant service 👌. Onion bargee was best I've ever had.
Following with stuffed chicken curry with spinach inside."
Martin Peleszok
"The food was excellent. Loved every dish!
Plenty of options for everyone whatever their taste.
The service needs a little work - the staff seemed a little giggly and didn’t pay attention to details. They could also have been better at making suggestions - they just seemed inexperienced.
I wonder if this was because we were a larger party? Hopefully this is something that can be addressed."

"Really nice food, fast service and beautiful presentation too. Good value lunch for £12 for two courses."
