So many options of sharing platters to choose from here & all such great quality / value for money! 😍 We went for the ‘Yorkshire Basket’ which has a little bit of everything & includes some mash. From the minted lamb shank, chicken, beef, pulled gammon & bangers and mash - everything was everything and more you want from a Sunday dinner. Pigs in blankets come complimentary but we ordered cheesy cauliflower as an extra. Red cabbage as part of the veg too. 👌🏽 Dogs are also allowed! 🐶 Make sure to book as they get super busy. 📞 Tummy very full & content. 🫶🏽 Staff & venue 10/10!
An amazing experience from start to finish. We took our grandmother here for her 80th birthday on a bottomless brunch. She spends a lot of time in Mallorca and the tapas menu really took her back to her happy place. Venue staff and overall experience was amazing! Can’t wait to return!
Had the Sunday Roast Shared Platter. Excellent. Well done guys👍 not very busy for the atmosphere as they had telecom issues.
Me and a friend visited from work on our lunch break as we had heard good things.. 50 mins later and we were without the food we ordered. An egg salad and a steak sandwich. We were the only customers at this point. 35 minutes in we were told the egg salad was not yet ready as they hadn’t got the water hot enough to boiler the egg. Once the food did arrive the egg salad had peppers on which my friend is allergic to. We asked if it could be boxed up as we were now well over our lunch break. Well it was thrown in with blue roll attached! We were expected to pay full price for this also had we not complained. Overall rubbish experience! Shocking. Poor customer service, would not recommend!
Had a bottomless brunch and it was so fresh and beautiful. Karen and the ladies looked after us and really made us feel welcome. The choice of drinks was really good -, especially the different types of wine we could pick from. An amazing afternoon in a relaxed yet vibrant atmosphere
