We are a party of 8 after a day of golf.We were brought to a table & after that it took a while before they took our orders for drinks to start.....& also took a while before it arrived.,So it did not start promising.We ordered our dinner when we ordered our 2nd drinks since we notice the slow service.It took a good 2 hours before our dinner arrived. My husband & I can only speak of our mussels that we both ordered. Good that it is quite good.I love everything, the mussels are all good, tomato sauce & the tasty grilled bread with it.love the salad as well.Our brother in law complained of dry chicken that he ordered.

We were happy the staff was able to accomodate our celiac daughter & they had good knowledge of what was in each food item on the menu. Friendly service. Good fries with dipping sauce. Our only complaint is the beef patties in our burgers were the premade frozen type - not the best pub burger.
