Beautiful day to enjoy this lovely meal outside. It was a total win for our little family. Husband got a tasty Sunday roast which he thoroughly devoured, my son got to run around on the lovely grounds since it’s hard for him to sit still, I had a surprisingly tasty chickpea falafel vegetarian dish that was both tasty and filling. Service was spot on and bathrooms were clean and well stocked. My pet peeve has always been no soap /toilet paper in establishments so even before Covid it’s kinda a sticking point with me. Have already recommended to friends and would 100% come back again. It’s off the main road in the town center so kind of hidden but what a gem. Can’t say enough about the nice service and lovely atmosphere.
Over the years, anything I've ever ordered here has been absolutely delicious and worth every penny. Even when I'm unsure of an ingredient, I am always pleasantly surprised with how good it tastes. Which goes to show the expertise of the chef and kitchen staff. I have always had a great experience here and can't recommend it enough for people who love and appreciate great food and wine.
