We visited for Sunday lunch yesterday and whilst the service and delivery of food was very quick (we received our roast less than 1 minute after our starters were cleared) the food was not as good as what I was expecting. The starter of squid was luke warm and the roast potatoes were over done on the roast. And disappointingly the topside of beef was like eating shoe leather. It was sooo tough! Very disappointing for what cost £70 for 2 people which only consisted of 2 starters and 2 roasts with 2 cokes. Although the presentation and service was good the food wasn’t great

I have eaten here many times but was disappointed with our meal yesterday. Service was brilliant but the food let it down on this occasion.
