Food is okay. Fryer is not suitable for coeliacs (despite steak) etc being listed as gf. They will offer substitutes etc but maybe look into changing this? Items may be gf by ingredient but you shouldn't be labeling them as this if you put everything into the same fryer (worked hospo for years - it's not hard to differentiate and train staff on). You could make someone seriously sick. Clear labeling provides comfort for everyone. Overall a good place for a bite but the service is also very rushed.

We arrived on a really busy night with no booking & were advised we could wait at the bar for an hour for a table which we were happy to do. After ordering a drink and waiting ~15 mins we had had a table available to us. Staff were all extremely helpful, attentive and accommodating. Food was delicious. Had the steaks which were both flavoursome & cooked well. Then shared pavlova for dessert which was quite nice and a very large service so sharing was a good call. Overall this place has great service, great atmosphere and decent food. Recommend if you’re in the area😊(Plenty of gluten free options available).
