  My parents are regular customers at the restaurant and really rate it. I've been a few times and would usually rate this place at least a 4 star. However, visited Sunday lunch time and ordered from the lunch menu 2 course for about £11. Ordered the nachos for starters which were disappointing; quality was poor, nachos were circular, similar to the ones you get out of the old El Paso kits, which wasn't a good sign. Which were led on a wilted peice of lettuce? No layering of the cheese, three jalapeños and 1 black olive chucked on top. With a tiny pot of salsa on the side and another pot of what seemed like thick cream? Stated sour cream but it definitely wasn't sour cream. Just lacked effort, would not buy again. Mains I had the bbq chicken, now I thought this was a save bet as I've had the BBQ chicken wings before and that was great. However, what came was a grilled chicken breast with some BBQ sauce, chips and a few bits of lettuce. Very disappointing. Although I am willing to accept the fact that it was the lunch menu and quality was less due to this. I would recommend having a better description of the dishes as I expected more than just a chicken breast with sauce. Which I could have prepared a lot better myself to be frank. Though the sticky toffee pudding was great, and the service was also very efficient. I'd come again but probably not of the lunch menu.

  I ordered a seafood pizza. The pizza was thin like cardboard and tasted like it. The tomato sauce tasted like the one from Pizza Margarita. The seafood was cheap. The pasta we ordered, was not much better. Do be honest, I can cook better at home.

  Amazing food at very reasonable prices with excellent service with a smile. We were a large party but fully taken care of with food all arriving at the same time etc
