Oh dear! This place seems unable to deal with a sizable group booking. There's an issue with a shortage of staff. Waiting times were long as there was only one waitress delivering food and another serving drinks. The carvery option had three types of meat, the beef was good but regular portions could have been more generous. The accompanying vegetables were of the usual variety of leathery roast potatoes and bland frozen veg. It was hard to enjoy a meal here, if you can afford to go somewhere better, that would be advisable.

Felt sorry for the staff, didn't seem to be enough, but worked hard. Parking: Very easy parking Price per person: £10–20 Food: 4 Service: 4
