Peter advised us on the Menu and the House Specials while cracking jokes and being most polite and friendly. My wife take the House Special and I had the Roast Duck. The food was prepared freshly with care. Upon receiving our order on the plate I've to say it's more than a healthy portion! It was quite tasty and something you can truly enjoy. We've gone in to have something nice for my Birthday, naturally, the staff got a notion of this upon talking with us. They ended up being surprising us with all of them coming to our table singing with a plate of dessert which had a lit candle on it singing Happy Birthday. It was a surprise for sure, and a welcomed one. Sometimes things value just simply can not be paid with money. Truly exceptional customer service is one of them! Will definitely be back for more great food. Plenty left to try on the menu! 🙂

The atmosphere, interior, even the music choice were tasteful and really cosy.
Food was excellent! Really tasty, filling portions that match the price (Veg blew my mind! Haven’t had such nicely seasoned veg anywhere else as far as I remember). We both got Crispy Sizzling Half Duck with HOMEMADE plum sauce, mash pot. and veg. I don’t know what else to say here, I was somewhere in cloud 9 after the first bite.
And lastly, the two lovely staff men were really professional, attentive, and pleasant. They made our evening even nicer as both of us are pretty chatty and they did not turn their back on us but joined in on a small conversation making us feel welcomed.
Honestly, I am coming back and I am bringing more people in because everyone has to know and experience this place!!
SUPERB!!
