I’ve only been here 3 times and first 2 excellent! Today was disappointing as ordered food for breakfast but arrived not only cold but not cooked properly. Waitress, who was excellent, offered alternatives but after I’ve returned food I tend to lose appetite. So declined offer! However, I was stunned they charged me as someone who uses their sister’s restaurants frequently ! In their defence they have since contacted me and offered free meal although later in the day their sister restaurant let me down also! I’m hoping one offs ! Staff are excellent !

Food always good. However the gateway store is always swarming with flies on tables and chairs. Cant imagine what happens in the kitchen. They always run out of coffee crunchies. Good food sad hygiene.

The normally excellent food, has been totally spoiled by 3rd grade meat. The Lamb chops were totally inedible.
A real shame.
It must very mean that all the meat supply is similar.

Average service, on a quiet day! toasted sandwiches took very long and food was cold...no one checks on you regards food and service. Below average by a mile.

Amazing food, beautifully presented and prepared. Excellent service. We were pleasantly surprised and will be back for more. The menu is varied with some unusual dishes chucked in. Pasta dishes and the Asian salad were superb.
