    We had a table for four for our catch up with friends meal all ok until a gang of young people came and stood around the next table so noisy and rowdy we eventually had to move so we could hear our own conversation. Instead I felt they should have been in the bar area not crowding round a table where others were trying to eat in peace and chatting

    Food was on the whole nice, but disappointed that the Cheese Soufflé was not available, also the hot apple crumble tart dessert was cold in the middle.

    Absolutely Fantastic, I used to come with my mum and step dad over 30 years ago, so to find it still open on my return to the UK for a holiday was an unexpected surprise. We will be back next time we are back in the area, good luck for the rest of the year and beyond. Martin
