Amazing food. Great staff. The Wix booking system let us both down when I ordered recently. I had to wait in the pub while they did the order from scratch, which was fine. Not only did they sub me a pint for the wait, they comped the entire meal.
Which was of course delicious. Best Steak and Guinness Pie in town. Hands down. The schnitzel was a bit of a let down (dry and tiny) but the arancini was out of this world, as was the Sticky Toffee Pud.

Great service in both the pub and restaurant. Happy hour from 4 to 7 Monday to Friday. Great food in the restaurant. However the gnocchi want as light as I would like. The bed rub was ok, however the Barramundi, cheesecake and Labna desserts were awesome. Nice ambiance. Although the AC could have been on a little cooler.

Nothing says Sunday like a good old fashioned Sunday roast. Serving up a traditional roast of the day every Sunday. I had the beef brisket roast served with all the trimmings including roast potatoes, cabbage, roast beetroot and a traditional crispy Yorkshire pudding accompanied with a mustard gravy and horseradish cream. My only additional request is that there is more gravy! My plate in particular didn’t have a lot of gravy but one of the other guests on my table had slightly more than me. Needed some additional gravy particularly to eat the crispy Yorkshire pudding.
A filling and satisfying

Been here several times for the Sunday roast- read another review who says it’s over the top and I just wanted to respond to it; it’s not the traditional English Sunday roast, it’s slow cooked beef with delicious baby root vegetables and a big fluffy Yorkshire, a creamy mustard gravy. I love it, it’s an upscale version of the original and I think it’s divine. However if you want the traditional roast beef, boiled veg etc go elsewhere.
