Went here for dinner with the family last week. We’ve been here a few times. It’s never been my favourite tbh but our last visit confirmed that we won’t be back unless they change things up. The waitresses were all very polite and smiley but the overall service was quite slow, especially when waiting for desserts. The pints of beer were disappointing. My father in-law even asked for another pint because it was flat. My starters (fried mushrooms and fried Brie) were nice enough but mains were poor. I had the coronation crepe which sounded nice but the chicken inside seemed very processed and not very fresh. I asked with garlic bread but they gave me chips. They admitted their error and gave me garlic bread. My chocolate cake for dessert was drowned in chocolate sauce which was far too much.

The menu and prices have somewhat changed, but with new owners only to be expected, the food was fine. The bill was also incorrect but was amended without fuss. Sadly its just not the same dining experience and it may be some time before I...
