Many thanks to Lee for his friendly, helpful and patient service at a busy time on the bank holiday Monday. All the food was delicious and piping hot, too.

Lovely venue for a family meal with very friendly, helpful waiter who took great care over the 4 out 9 meals that needed to be gluten free. Lee (from Newcastle, works in Durham, lives in South Shields) was a wonderful host and made the meal all the more enjoyable.

Mia and Alex are absolutely fantastic, you would never have known there was only two of them. They were so attentive and nothing was a bother. My wife even had a hypo and they interrupted what they were doing to get her some sugar. Thanks for a lovely lunch
