We met here for a friend's leaving drinks. The drink prices are reasonable considering it is the City Centre. I just had a portion of chips that were very chunky and really nice with a homemade feel. My friends tried the chicken, veggie, and beef burgers. They all enjoyed their meal with my friend who had the beef burger saying it was amazing. One friend tried the meatball loaded chips, but I don't know what he thought about it. It was a decent portion, though. The staff were quite friendly and there's lots of separate seating areas for your group to enjoy a semi private space. There's also a garden area outside, which is great in summer and an additional seating area downstairs. One downside is that the toilets are a bit smelly, I think it's due to lack of ventilation as they're downstairs.
They can cater for events and also have activities on. It's on the outskirts of the centre but right next to the NCP and bus station, so it's a great place to start or end your day.
The doorway is a little narrow due to it being a very old pub, so I'm not sure how easy it would be to get a wheelchair inside. Also, the seating is on different levels, so only 3 seating areas are on the entrance level, which is also the...

On reflection, it's actually despicable to think that they earnestly served what they served to us but we sure did enjoy laughing about it later. The chef on duty (Sunday afternoon) could possibly be the worst chef currently in employment. Now, I'm not a qualified chef myself but I know the basics... I'm fairly confident I'd do a better job - unfortunately I am being deadly serious. If you're looking for a good laugh (and if you've already eaten) then get yourself down to this place, order something from the menu and consider the money spent a transaction for entertainment; like a comedy or something. It's honestly so bad you have to see it to believe it! It's quite possible this place will become an ironic tourist attraction if they keep this chef in the kitchen. Honestly, order the "Gratinated macaroni"... Oh, God, I have tears in my eyes right now because I'm laughing so much at how badly the chef f*ed up the easier thing on the menu; it's so extremely hilarious to the point it becomes disturbing. I don't think I could make macaroni that bad if I were to substitute the cheese for rain water and the pasta for...
