Lovely setting. Great for the kids. They need more staff. It was busy and there were not enough waiters. Took ages to get our food. Some enjoyed the meals while others did not. Not a very large menu. Nice atmosphere though.

Great place, great entertainment but not enough staff at the bar. Waiting time is average 30 mins before you get served, approximately 8 people waiting at the same time. Barman ignores you flat until he feels like serving you. No waiters.

This venue has so much to offer, but when we were there the place was empty and the slow service may have something to do with that. Ill visit again simply because of the potential.

The name says it all, this place used to be a dive, a local to be avoided at all costs but the new owners have turned it around, now it is a good local pub if you like local pubs that is, for those who want to celebrate getting out of the city or a last drop in for those coming home to the city.
