We dined at the restaurant, which went very well. Service was prompt and efficient, the meals (beef burger and panko-crumbed fish) were tasty and filling, and good value for money. The atmosphere is quiet and friendly, with a sports bar vibe - there are a lot of big-screen TVs to watch the game.

Just went to dinner at the restaurant, great friendly staff and really good food at reasonable prices. Well worth calling in if you are thirsty or wanting a good meal.
