					Fantastic Had my daughters birthday party here. It was just a small gathering but that didn't matter. We were treated so well and nothing was a problem to ask for. I especially would like to thank Barry for looking after us so well. We had a lovely night. Food was fantastic, music was great and atmosphere was brilliant. All the staff were so helpful and friendly. Thoroughly recommend either having a meal or spending your evening there. You most definitely will not be disappointed.
