"This venue promised so much but didn't really deliver. Some parts were good others not great. Staff are very welcoming, although most are very young and seem quite inexperienced. For starters we had a mix of batterered king praws with a chilli dip which were enjoyable. Garlic mushrooms which hit the spot. Potatoe skins, again which were good. I had a goats cheese tart which was very small and not great taste wise. Our mains were of a reasonable size those that plumped for the home made steak pie probably fared best. The pie was served with homemade chips and a selection of vegetables. The pies were meaty inside with well cooked beef. The homemade chips were good too. I asked for Ketchup for my chips and wished I hadn't as it wasn't a great brand. I used the extra gravy that was served with the pie instead. My partner had a chicken stroganoff with boiled rice which he enjoyed. The most disapointing dish was the Chicken paramo. The béchamel sauce that was on this was bland, overly think and lumpy. Chef definitely needs to rethink this one. Our desserts were again a mixed bag. My partner ordered vanilla ice-cream and it only came with one scoop. The Crème brulee was good, as was the brownie. The ice cream sundae I had was a poor attempt. Served in a bowl with what presented like squinty cream . We have been here before and thought the food wasn't as good this time around. Just needs a few small tweaks though to improve."
