Our food

It's good - and it’s reasonably priced with portions to satisfy the hungriest eater!

Phil, our Chef, is a great believer in home cooking and this is reflected in our menu. Our steaks are char-grilled (to make a succulently moist and well-flavoured dish) to absolute perfection and exactly to your taste.
