It’s a long narrow room, furnished in a comfortable mixture of traditional and contemporary styles, with well-appointed white-clothed tables, soft lighting and neatly uniformed waitresses in black polo shirts and trousers with white aprons all creating a good impression.

Andy’s menus are lively and attractive, the cooking is confident and, an active supporter of local produce, he does a great line in well-aged steaks, and seafood.

Seats 120 (plus 40 on an outside terrace, weather permitting); children welcome; air conditioning.
