Best pizza best service very friendly understanding service n people .all was 100 out 100 best for any type of Birthday party&#39;s.and Affordable definitely

Had our wedding reception upstairs. The room is modern and spacious, really worked for the party vibe. Everyone kept talking about the buffet food, which was a relief. A couple of dishes were a bit lukewarm by the time we got to them, but the flavours were spot on.

I had a fantastic Sunday lunch at the Beacon Bistro. The mixed roast was spot on, and the chef was very accommodating with our requests. Great environment and friendly service!

The small plates at this restaurant are a must-try! Each dish was bursting with flavor, and the staff were incredibly attentive, making for a delightful evening out.

The Sunday roast beef ribs were so tender and flavourful. The seating was really comfortable too, which made for a relaxed meal.

The new garden is a lovely spot. It&rsquo;s quite spacious and feels very peaceful. I enjoyed sitting out there with my lunch&mdash;the fresh air was a nice touch. The space itself is very well done.

Mason was a great server, really friendly. They let us bring some decorations and didn&rsquo;t mind a bit of extra noise. The chilli prawns were spot on.

The fish and chips were spot on, really fresh and crispy. The karage chicken from the sharing menu was a nice surprise too.

Busy Saturday lunch, but service was prompt. Had the grilled sea bass, cooked well. Good for a quick business meal in the area. Might return.

The signature burger was spot on. What really made it for me was the house red they suggested - a nice, earthy Pinot Noir that cut through the richness perfectly. A solid pairing. The burger itself was juicy and well-seasoned, just how I like it. Been a minute since I enjoyed one this much.

The Sticky Pig pizza with chilli oil is a real winner. Service was lovely and attentive on a quiet afternoon.

Great spot for a kids&#39; party. The team kept everyone busy, and they were really on top of the allergies. My glass of house red was a nice bonus while I watched the fun.

Service is always quick, food arrives fast. I appreciate that the ingredients taste fresh, especially in the salads. The desserts are a nice, light finish. Prices are fair for the quality you get.

Been here a few times. They do a nice little dessert if it&#39;s your birthday, on the house. Noticed it for a couple of other tables too. Decent spot for that sort of thing.

As a coeliac, I was really impressed by their separate allergy menu. Plenty of options, which is rare. The gluten-free pasta dish I had was cooked just right, not mushy at all. Made for a relaxed evening out.

The staff here are always so friendly and efficient. They really make you feel welcome, like you&#39;re a local. It&#39;s a nice, relaxed vibe.

Tuesday steak night is solid. The steak was cooked just right, and the staff were really helpful with the gluten-free options.

Came for a Christmas lunch with the family. The turkey was spot on, really moist and the gravy was just right. Staff were lovely and kept things moving. Felt like a proper festive meal without the usual Christmas Day price tag.

Popped in on a Thursday for their tapas deal. Three small plates and a drink for a twelve quid. The pork and apple casserole was proper home-cooked stuff. Solid.

Been coming here for years, and the Sunday buffet is always spot on. Just remember to book ahead &ndash; it gets packed.

The mushroom linguine was a standout. Not bland at all, really flavourful. My friends enjoyed their steaks too.

Nice spot in the old post office building. The separate sections and original fireplaces make it feel cozy. Food and drinks are fairly priced, service was efficient. Good for a business lunch.

Katarina was so friendly and helpful. Service was quick, which we appreciated. The set menu deal was a nice surprise, good value for the quality. We&#39;ll be back for that!

Decided to try their regional special, the lamb with cumin. The meat was tender, cooked just right. The menu has classics too, but I was in the mood for something different. A solid choice if you&#39;re looking to branch out a bit.

Nice traditional pub downstairs, but the upstairs dining area is much quieter. Their house red went really well with the steak I had.
