I came here for dinner and had the parmi. I was sick 15 minutes later in the pub toilets. I asked to speak to the manager and advised him. He took my number and did not offer me a refund of my meal nor has called me since. I am very dissappinted by the service and this is a risk to other peoples health.

Fantastic place for a family lunch during the school holidays. Staff were so friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. Menu has lots of options, both healthy & not-so-healthy, and the wines by the glasses menu had lots of options. Decor is classic, upmarket pub-style and in immaculate condition. Rarely give 5 star ratings but couldn't fault this place.
