“ Been here several times for dinner with my family. Staff are always friendly and food has always been great. Reasonably priced and they have a reward scheme which can give you free cocktails as a welcome & if you keep returning and gaining points, you will get money off food too ”
“ Colleagues and I ate here every day over a week whilst saying in the adjoining Cromwell Hotel. The bar area is very smart with classy stylish decor with pictures of Oliver Cromwell adorning the walls giving the modern bar area an old feel and an insight into this historic building. The restaurant has plenty of comfortable seating and a nice generally busy atmosphere and the tables aren't on top of each other so you can have a conversation with colleagues or friends in private and also not hear everyone around you. The staff are well presented and very polite and helpful and always eager to please. Our regular waitress a young Irish lass didn't try to hurry us to order and was very nice cheerful and polite and talkative which is always nice. My colleagues and I were treated very well and despite the restaurant being very busy most evening services we were not rushed out the door to turn over tables but treated as if we were the only people in the restaurant. Over our weeks stay the food generally arrived at table within 15 to 20 minutes and most of the time didn't disappoint. My colleagues and I generally felt the food was very good with a good range of mains especially the shin of beef and a daily changing fish special although those NOT eating burger based main course dishes did feel that the portions could have been bigger negating the desire for "snack or kebab" within an hour or so of dinner. Would definitely eat here again if I was in the area. ”
“ Very nice place to have coffee and cake. We didn't try the main dishes as it was a small get together. The service was very personal and efficient. The price was reasonable and nice quiet place to meet friends ”
“ Absolutely delicious ...goats cheese salad ..beautiful... served by amazing staff... Thank you very much ”
“ Christmas dinner with colleagues. Large party of us. We had pre-ordered and each dish came out with the corresponding persons name so as to not miss anyone out and to avoid the usual confusion of who had ordered what. Tasty food, attentive service. Bit of a wait for some drinks on occasions (some even arrived after we had paid the bill!) - but it was a busy Friday night near Christmas. Overall, a very positive experience. ”
“ A wonderful addition to the high street. Great food -Mushroom and pancetta linguine to start and Shin of beef for mains.... Eton mess for dessert is great too! Cocktails are a winner and Real ale is served. Nice for a few drinks or to dine. ”
“ Lovely tradition food, good value and nice setting, parking at the rear of the building and plenty of outdoor seating. ”
“ First time back for an off menu experience! Pleasant staff with an attentive smile and demeanor. Nothing rushed. Drinks where prompt and reasonable Starters came quickly and fresh. The main course was excellent and well proportioned. The benefit of a loyalty voucher made the final bill much more palatable. ”
