"This is a great pizza place. The staff are welcoming, the food uses good quality ingredients, and the owner is passionate about food, done right and is authentic in what he is doing. Too many places of this size knock out bland, anglicized pizzas. These are Italian in their approach, simple ingredients that do not need to be in your face to be flavoursome. I always chose a margarita for my first visit to any pizza place if they can do that well, the others will most likely be good as well. The standard sized pizza on hand stretched sour dough was a generous size, the large is a monster, at least 20 and a really impressive beast. They do something really sensible with the large pizzas, they treat it is quarters and you can have different topping on each quarter. Unless you have an unhealthy sized appetite, these large ones are for sharing the quarters approach reduces the risk of arguments and maximises the opportunity to try different toppings. The whole place is clean, well presented and feels good. What really impressed me was the fact that this place not only serves good honest food they do it with honesty and integrity. The group on the table next to me were also newbie to the place and they order two of the large. This was a mother, grandmother and two small kids. The Owner spotted that this was likely to be too much food and rather than cashing in on the order he sent over the large pizza serving board to show how big they really are. Needless to say, they reduced the order to one large and a standard. I left before they finished but I am beating there was at least half the big pizza left when they were stuffed. I will definitely be returning when I am in the area. Thanks for a great meal."

"My friends and I had made a reservation at this restaurant a week before Christmas and each of us had to pay a £20 deposit and pre-order our food (this was not advertised at the time of booking but it was understandable due to the time of year). I asked about the deposit and was told it was in case of no-shows. On the day of our reservation, one friend was very late and another didn't show up. We dined without the latecomer and skipped her starter so she could join us for the main course. However, the mains and dessert for the no-show were still brought to our table. At the end of the night, when we asked for the bill, we realized they hadn't included the deposits we had paid earlier, as if they were hoping we had forgotten. We were then charged for the food of the no-show guests, as well as the starters that we never received. When we questioned this, we were told it was company policy to charge for the food. Despite our explanations about the purpose of the deposit, they were unwilling to budge. The service was terrible, with us having to repeatedly ask for the food and drinks we had ordered but not received. A live band was setting up to play in the area where we were dining but they were asked to move after playing just one song due to a complaint. None of the diners in the area were asked for their opinions, and as a table of musicians, we were disappointed by the lack of consideration shown to the musicians and other diners. I emailed the pub afterwards to request a refund for the undelivered food we had paid for and expressed my disappointment in having to pay for the no-show's food despite the deposit. They refused to refund but offered a voucher for a future visit, which I declined. I have since asked for a refund and have not received a response. The food was okay but overpriced and nothing exceptional. Overall, it was a disappointing experience with poor customer service, and my group and I will not be returning or recommending this restaurant."
