The carvery is good and good value, but almost no choice if you don't want the carvery - we ended up having the carvery meat with an apology for a salad (just lettuce, shaved cucumber and carrots)."

Very much appreciate not being made to feel like a burden with my allergens, would highly recommend to visit and enjoy good food and surroundings. 17/05/2021: The staff were great, following COVID guidelines only down side was the outside area has not been touched during the lockdown there are cigarette bins broken off the wall and the seating is old and haggard it needs some investment"
