Food fresh and beautifully cooked. Gluten free not a problem. A bit noisy from upstairs, but would certainly return.....soon

Stretch to a 4 star. Hand cut chips need some more cooking. Hard in the middle so ask them to do them extra. Service started off a bit slow- but they redeemed themselves in the end.

The food was excellent and the service great. My only disappointment was no cask beer on, but delivery and ordering when there may be a further lockdown must be a risky business.
