I can only rate the restaurant as we only came for dinner. We used a voucher but the staff seemed to be confused by how the voucher works. The decor does seem to be targeted at their main demographic which is the older population. Parking is very limited and quite tight spaces, would be easy to damage a bigger car. Other than these points the food was really tasty, staff were attentive and friendly!
