As people fairly new to the area, we were so looking forward to our lunch with friends, hoping that it would become a regular destination for us. Disappointingly, that wasn’t the case as the service was very poor. We waited half an hour at the table before drinks were served, the food came nearly an hour after our previously booked time and we gave up on waiting for the dessert menu to come, preferring to go home for tea and cake. We acknowledge that it was a glorious day and there were a lot of customers outside but it seemed to us that they took precedence over the people who had reserved a table. What a shame.
