"We had the pork ribs here, it was a wonderful, it was a block of pork belly cooked beautifully, it came with a generous helping of mash potatoes. My wife had the salad which was much better than most salads I've seen, and our friend had pizza which was also great. Service was very good and friendly too. Well worth a visit."
