The menu caters for everyone and the staff are friendly and good with children. Food is decent, not exceptional but is priced accordingly. Quaint decor and always busy adding to a good atmosphere in the restaurant. Can recommend for a good family evening.

What can I say.... My daughter and I ate her on two nights. The first night was good food and good service. The second night was Roast beef but it was chewy and the roast potatoes were not cooked totally. The service was not the same as the first.

Thank you so much for delivering the cake and balloons to the train for us. We had a fantastic time on the train and the food was fantastic. The bar always looked so busy every time we went past, we were quite jealous we weren't staying at the hotel while we were there. Thanks again
