August 2023 We returned as part of group of 14 people for dinner. Having booked in well ahead of our dinner. The tables were all set for dinner and reserved. The staff provided excellent service and the food was very nice. We are already planning a lunch function to be held in 3 months time.

It has been two years since the last time we dined here. The service remains at the excellent level it was before Covid-19.
