This 5-star review may start by sounding like a 1-star when I say that our first two visits weren't ideal... But as a previous restaurant manager, I must say the way the wait staff handled these two unusual situations (that were out of their control) was impeccable. First visit was the busiest night in history (so there was an hour long delay on our meals), but when the meals came out they were delicious and generous. The staff were incredibly professional and on the ball in terms of keeping us in the loop and also generously comped us drinks to apologise for the wait (without having to be prompted

Had a family meal in the Bistro which everybody agreed was delicious. The meals were all huge and fresh. The menu is on their website and also caters for Seniors and kids. The staff were friendly and the meals came out quite quickly. It's a good value family pub and we will definately be going back again.

We booked for 3 for Sunday lunch and it was my 1st visit there.
Mussels for entree was good but would love the sauce a bit more spicy
I ordered chefs special gnocchi the sauce was too thick too sticky and heavy to enjoy.
Steak sandwich was tender and tasty. However the chips were dry and hard and we suspect they were reheated from a previously cooked batch. The roast pork special for the day had an adequate crackling however it was dry and clearly, it had been cooked a few days prior. The accompanying sweet potato mash was nice.
