We had a party of 11 including 3 children. All enjoyed their meals, however 3 of us ordered the Roast Chicken, it was not roasted it was grilled, enormous portion and unfortunately one person noticed red streaks in the meat and could not finish her meal. Service was quite slow, the restaurant was busy. The staff were pleasant and helpful but having spent over 2hrs in the restaurant we did not voice our concerns. This, however, has not put us off.

We celebrated Boxing day as a family of 10 at this great venue. I requested a private area and this was accommodated for in a lovely part of the restaurant. We were waited on by Leah and Ruby who were both very attentive and friendly and a credit to the team. Food was served promptly and was delicious. Overall I was very pleased with the food, service received and value for money. We'll definitely be back!

We were greeted kindly and friendly. They allowed us to hold our ordering till the rest of our party joined us. Sat us a comfy spacious booth table. Drinks were always checked and topped up. I'm pregnant and wanted some alterations which they accommodated no problems. We were all given extra Christmas crackers for the children. Really lovely experience and good prices.

Called in on our way home from Newhaven to Wales. The Welcome as you wait to be seated was friendly and polite despite no booking this was no issue. All waiting staff were very friendly - no complaints whatsoever. Food came quickly following order however was missing side dish to begin with which we had to wait for and the build your own burger was missing the cheese slice that was ordered. Thankfully the waitress who was lovely double checked to make sure we weren’t charged for the cheese slice as it is extra in the build your own burger options and honoured the Blue Blight Card Discount at the end when paying the bill as we ordered two mains from the main menu.
