What People Say!
"Booked a Christmas lunch for 34 people. Staff were all very efficient and helpful despite a busy Sunday lunch time before our arrival time.Food was hot and delicious. They very kindly helped us with a surprise birthday cake too. A big Thank you to all the staff for excellent efficient service with lots of smiles from everyone"
"Always Outstanding. Not only is the food always outstanding, but the service is also friendly and professional. The value for money just can not be beaten for the quality of products, not even adding in the spectacular view across Carsington. Highly recommend the daily roast dinner, early bird breakfast (just £10 inc. drink!) and the afternoon teas. Oh plus all the cakes which are delicious. Also fab how you can add on a walk to meal/drink out."
"Always a pleasant experience here. The portion size and the taste of the king prawn and chorizo white wine sauce pasta was phenomenal! Amazing value and service. Thank you!"
