Very good menu, something for everybody. Steaks are excellent. Clear the waiter knew his steals also, he was adamant on how it should be cooked and boy was he right, came out cooked to perfection. Excellent food.

The food was lovely, some of our party were very impressed with the steaks. Disappointed that one of our party had his main course put in front of him while still trying to finish his starter!

Unfortunately the Irish bar next door had it's music so loud you could not talk. Apparently this is an ongoing concern. Get a table inside if you can .

The rack of lamb was well trimmed and cooked as requested. It would have been better without the balsamic vinegar on the serving plate. The gluten free carbonara pasta was lacking in flavour and seasoning. I think offering some Parmesan cheese with might have helped.

The welcome was warm and friendly. T ishe food was a mixture of cultures. The chicken stroganoff and the chicken skewers had Asian hints and the lamb shank was totally British including mixed vegetables, mashed potatoes, red wine gravy and mint sauce. All of it was delicious and of the highest quality. Our Douro wine was also first class and very reasonably priced. A very satisfying meal served by charming staff.
