Testimonials

Wonderful place, great food, impeccable service! We hired the function room for my daughter’s birthday party and were so pleased with our choice! The team looked after us and made sure everyone was happy. We have returned a couple of times since and have always been happy with the food, the service and the atmosphere. Definitely one of our favourite pubs!

Matthew Gerald

Came here for a meeting, the room was already set up and everything we needed was in there. Someone took our coffee order and all the hot drinks were really good and made to order. Lunch was really good too.

Melissa A

With only a few weeks notice, I organised a small wedding lunch in the blue room. I could tell the team has a lot of experience in organising weddings and other private events, which made me feel more relaxed to know it was all in safe hands! The day before I dropped off a few things and how Sandra (and I forgot the other girls name but she was also excellent) consequently transferred the Blue Room into a stylish and elegant place was amazing. In the blue room they also allow people to plug in their phones for music which was great! And the small lunch actually spontaneously became a small party:) I had a perfect day and so much more than expected so thank you!
