So disappointed on Friday night (2nd October). We booked for 8:30 and arrived exactly on time. There was a decent queue though as the poor girl that was checking people in was having to clear tables so that new arrivals could sit down. It took us over 20 minutes to get in.

The sausage didn't seem smoked at all but the rosemary chips were good. The portions were huge. You have to scan the barcode on the table to order everything online, similar to online shopping and they take card only. They do different stalls each month so they might have some better options upcoming but for me I don't think I will be...
