Went last night with parents, really cosy place with lively and friendly atmosphere. Staff were really welcoming and our waitress in particular (brown ponytail, big smile, I think she was english!) Was so warm and lovely and really made us feel at home. Food was better than average pub grub and we left feeling warmed and thoroughly cheered up.
