Tucked away in the back of Preston. What a venue with amazing service and food. Very casual but special at the same time. Awesome venue for a intimate dinner but also great to catch up with friends. A+ Stray Neighbour

Beer was good.Wine was good. Steak was good. But they brought out the wrong meal for my wife. She wanted a porterhouse and got belly pork. They then cooked the porterhouse but it was possibly rushed because when it was put on the table it was rare and rubbery. Also I had already finished my meal. It was our 35th wedding anniversary and was a disappointment. They did give us a complimentary glass of wine to say sorry but eating seperately didn't really make up gor it. Will give it another go sometime.

Menu was too restrictive. We were not full after the set course. Could have offered another option to choose from and we would have been happy to pay more for it.

Great food with tasty fresh produce and many fantastic beer choices. Although having a 10% surcharge just for being a weekend left a bad taste.

The food was fabulous and the wine delish. As with many places though, as a single diner, you do tend to be ignored a little and service is a bit slow.

Dinner was ok. Unsure whether the price matched the value though. Bit steep based on some meal sizing & quality. Won't be going back in a hurry - too much competition.

A regular favourite of ours. The food is delicious, the service is friendly and prompt and all in a beautiful setting. Only downside, we totally over order every time and never finish anything. The servings are very good size so don’t go crazy on sides.

I love it here - great food, great service, great atmosphere. We played pool, drank some great beers and ate some great food - especially the dessert! Chocolate ristretto taut... yummo. Two things that were odd - no kids menu or even an offer of something for kids... but more perplexing was the Saturday/Sunday Surcharge applied to the whole meal... Really!!! I don't know about that. I get you have to pay your staff extra... but 10% extra... what happens on public holidays? So I might go back but not on a weekend. I mean, at least don't charge it on the alcohol... everyone knows the prices are already tripled on them.

While still having my drink and wanted to ask for another glass. The wait staff was quick to give us the bill when I wanted to order another drink. Felt like we were rushed out of there. Food was amazing!

Lovely food as always. It did take a little while to have our order taken which was only an issue as we had a baby in the group who needed to get home! Other than that no complaints, staff are very freindly and lovely.

Great coffee, simple but beautifully tasty food, friendly and attentive service. The Green eggs dish - eggs with nettles and ham hock, all on sourdough - was particularly good. My new favourite place to eat!

food and service is excellent. The fireplace is a bit smelly in there and does affect some people whilst they are eating and chatting to others
