A really enjoyable family Sunday lunch. Our servers were really lovely, attentive but not too much so. The food is delicious.....you will not come out of here hungry! A big shout out for good value children meals.

Great little find. The local ales are spot on and the food is well-priced. Very welcoming for dogs, too.

Stumbled in after a long trip, pretty knackered. The chicken momo were spot on, really hit the spot. Service was chill and friendly, which helped. Just what I needed.

Popped in for a quick morning coffee. The brownie was fantastic, really hit the spot. Service was quick and friendly, perfect for a fast bite. Will definitely be back when I&#39;m in the area.

The curry goat was so tender, just fell off the bone. That rich, slow-cooked flavour with the rice and peas... honestly hit the spot. The bar in the middle gives it a nice, relaxed vibe.

Perfect spot for a quick lunch. The spaghetti with lobster was flavourful and came out fast. Sausage rigatoni was top notch too. Exactly what you need when you&#39;re in a rush.

The waiter gave us space to chat, really appreciated that.

Came for a family dinner, the portions are huge! We ended up taking half the pasta home. The staff were really quick with our orders, which was a lifesaver with my toddler nephew.

Booking was easy. Staff called to confirm, which was nice. Food arrived quickly even though they were packed.

Family-run spot, super relaxed. Perfect for a quick lunch. Had the chicken curry, came out fast and hit the spot. Nothing fancy, just good, honest food. The vibe is very unpretentious.

Always a lovely atmosphere - dog friendly, child friendly - what else would you ask for.  Wonderful staff and great food :)

We came with the family and the portions were huge. Everyone got their fill. The staff were really helpful with the kids, too. Solid spot for a big group dinner.

Nice spot for a drink after a walk. The outdoor area is good, and they&#39;re really dog-friendly with water bowls and sausages.

Had a really nice evening here. The staff were so attentive without being overbearing, which made it feel relaxed. Food was solid, and the drinks list had some interesting options. Good spot for a casual catch-up.

The steak was cooked exactly as ordered, medium-rare. Juicy and flavourful, with a good sear on the outside. The peppercorn sauce was rich but not overpowering. A solid main course.

Been coming here for years, and the mixed grill is always spot on. Tender meat, proper spices, just how I remember it. That consistency keeps me coming back. Portion&#39;s decent for the area, too.

The Chateaubriand was a decent cut, and carving it at the table was a nice touch. The service was efficient, though perhaps a little too quick for a relaxed evening. My kids were happy with their pizzas.

Great selection of ales, perfect for a casual pint.

Popped in for lunch after shopping at Westquay. It&#39;s nice and spacious, which I always appreciate. The staff were very friendly and didn&#39;t rush us at all. We had the fish and chips, and it was just what we needed. A comfortable spot to take a break.

Got a table as a walk-in on a busy Saturday, which was a relief. The gluten-free options are solid. My partner, who has coeliac disease, had the pasta and didn&#39;t have any issues afterwards. That&#39;s the main thing for us.

Quick lunch spot. Bright and clean. Staff were really patient with my little one when he got fussy. Got my food fast, which is all I need on a short break. Solid for a quick bite.

My friend and I have eaten here 3 times in the last couple of months, drawn back by the &#39;buy one get one free main course&#39; offer. Each time the staff have been excellent, friendly, helpful and we have thoroughly enjoyed our meal.

Franco Manca offers a great atmosphere and delicious food. The staff is friendly and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for a casual dinner.

Came for the buffet with a few friends. The space is really well-designed, with high ceilings and those big, comfortable booths. Felt relaxed just sitting there, even when it got busy. Food was fresh and had good variety.

First time here, went for the Chef&#39;s Special Breakfast. The eggs were fine, but the mushrooms were the star &ndash; really flavourful and buttery. Classic diner vibe, which I liked. Service was quick.

Booked a large group for a birthday. They gave us a private room, which was perfect for the occasion. The staff were really attentive and made everything run so smoothly.

Lovely modern space, very comfortable. The wine list had some nice local options that paired well with our meal.

The salad greens were so fresh and crisp, really made the meal. A nice spot to sit and watch the world go by.

The dim sum selection here is solid. We tried the har gow and siu mai, both were fresh and well-made. The rest of the menu was a bit average, but I&#39;d come back just for the dim sum. Good for a quick business lunch.

The staff here are lovely. They took the time to chat about the wine list and suggested a really nice pairing for my steak. It made the whole evening feel relaxed and well looked after. A bit of a wait for the main, but they were apologetic.
