Most Disliked
Some visitors have noted that peak hours can lead to longer wait times for tables and food, especially during Saturday nights when the restaurant reaches full capacity. This may not suit those looking for a quick meal experience. A few guests have also commented on the price being slightly higher compared to other local eateries. While many agree the food quality justifies the cost, it might be a consideration for budget-conscious diners. Additionally, a handful of reviews mention a lack of gluten-free options outside of the designated menu, which could limit choices for those with specific dietary needs.

As soon as you walk in the door you're greeted by friendly, happy to help staff. You get to sit round the bar while you look at the menu. Once you know what you'll be having to eat the waiter takes your order and the menus. Around 5 minutes later your shown to your table and the food it shortly followed. Fantastic presentation of the cutlery and plates once they bring them over from the kitchen. We opted for sweet & sour chicken with salt & pepper chips, and salt & pepper chicken with noodles. Each dish tasted lovely and there wasn't anything bad we could say about them. The service level was excellent. Anything you needed they would sort for you without it being an issue. We spent around £105 for 2 appetisers, two mains with sides, 4 drinks and a desert. Although this is a little pricier than other places we were very much happy to pay the price due to the fantastic tasting food and the excellent service level. 100% recommend you visiting this place, easy to park, lovely experience!

Gluten Free Dream… had its own menu fully colour coded. Staff knew what was going on with allergens and brought food out saying gluten free and my name which was very reassuring. Delicious food and quality didn’t seem to be impacted even though we had 20 people in the party and it was a fully booked restaurant. Will look forward to venturing back!
