Travelled up from Galloway for Reytons gig so needed fed first. Arrived just after 4.30pm with my daughter. Shown straight to our reserved table on the raised platform, both if us are vegan and gluten free. Handed an extensive menu, drinks came sharpish food ordered, taken by staff member with full knowledge of what we could and couldn't order. Food arrived promptly and presentation was top drawer. We are both experienced restaurant goers and are fully aware of the pitfalls awaiting gluten free and vegan customers. All 4 choices we made were excellent; all food was top quality and filled us up ready for a night of gigging. 10% service charge was highlighted on bill and can be removed, left an extra tip.

The fish batter was way over cooked and was not nice. As for the chilli bowlâŚ.it was horrific. A splattering of shop bough nachos, a small amount of chilli and 5 mini bowls of toppings. Again it was cold.
As for the venue , well itâs clean. Just. There is a smell of stale beer when you walk in and the place is unlit and gloomy- not what I expected.
The staff were very friendly however a review is a review and I would not...
