    Good. HEAVENS. We had made a trip up from Plymouth and now I'm irritated that it's gonna have to be a bi-monthly trip just for this place. We arrived on a quiet and quaint Monday afternoon. Seated quickly and the hostess absolutely knew her stuff in terms of cocktails. Took into account my tastes and matched it to the ideal cocktail like a cocktail cupid. Every cocktail packed a proper punch, but it was still delicious and the flavours weren't overpowered by the alcohol. Anyway, partner ordered three small plates. WHICH WEREN'T SMALL AT ALL. Good lord, they were generous servings at worst. I stole a piece of her Korean chicken and there was that much I don't think she even noticed. I ordered the pork belly kebab and it's presentation was matched with its taste in terms of quality. How pork can be melt in your mouth is beyond my culinary understanding but their chefs absolutely mastered it. Again, pleasing aesthetically and to the pallet. I will absolutely go again, heck I already want to go again as their dessert menu was STACKED. Alas, I was too full, so I'm already planning on what to have next time.

    Located in the old guild hall. The interior is full if false, plastic flowers. The service is bad especially after 8 when gets crowded. The food is simple and overpriced. The sweets menu is totally unhealthy and heavy. The roaring music makes it difficult to chat.,

    Great looking restaurant and atmosphere. The food wasn’t great. Chicken kebab meat was cold and chips were anaemic (undercooked). Husband ordered made beer, which was served flat. Asked to change it and they brought another flat pint. Went to the bar to change it again and barman said he was ‘too busy’. Asked for the manager who apologised and changed the beer. Wouldn’t return.
