Peter - Christmas 2025

I booked a table for 10 here for a girls Christmas dinner. I don’t often write reviews but have to leave one to say what a wonderful place. The ambiance was perfect and the food just fab. All so tasty and beautifully presented. The staff went out of their way to ensure we had everything we wanted, we felt very well looked after. I will definitely be returning. Thank you all for a great night. X
