Lovely ambience, nice and warm in a lovely setting. Great staff service and very tasty food. You never have to wait too long and there is always everything available from the menu. We also like the establishment because it allows us to use our Tesco vouchers. It is only a few miles from where we live and the journey there is quite pleasant.
