Absolutely can not complain for the price, I can’t believe how good the prices are for one, and each time I’ve been in the past few weeks, each staff member has been a genuinely nice person, highly recommend

Always go here but thought I'd post to update due to Covid. Good system as they put a number on your tray to match the table you need to sit at. Food great as always, hand gel on wall and just on entrance to seating area. Lots of labelling on floor, staff all wearing required ppe. Tables cleaned as soon as you leave.
