We went for Sunday lunch and it was a lovely dinner the food was perfectly cooked, service was excellent Very friendly staff they couldn't do enough made us feel really welcoming so much so we've booked a table to go again and are looking at eating there on different days. We had been in for drinks on few occasions and like the feel and atmosphere. We could make it a regular place. We had attempted to go for Sunday lunch previous but was had finished by time we got there, but they were very apologetic and were so glad we give them another go
It must be a Thirsk thing. Amazing food, brilliant value for money, and everything was delicious. All the ingredients were fresher than a raindrop! The gammon came with a slice of fresh pineapple that's still living in my head, rent-free!
Great service. Bar staff were great and very welcoming. Popped in for a few drinks with my mum and sister. Will definitely be back.
