TheForkUser:“I like to visit and eat at this venue for memorable occasions. I would want to eat here every week but that would spoil the treat factor. Usually only visit for roast dinners on a Sunday and I can confidently declare that they are in my top three of favourite roast dinners I’ve had in 50+ years. I wouldn’t turn down an invite to dine here and look forward to my next treat at Morgans restaurant.”
