May/2010 Someone from Northern Ireland thinks:

  • Overall rating: 5.9
  • Would you recommend it? I don't know
  • Positive: Cleanliness, decent pool bar
  • Negative: Bar staff attitude - why ask us down for afternoon tea if no courtesy is to be displayed - my wife had to wait nearly 15 mins for someone to pass her a jug of milk whilst her tea went cold - staff attempted to look busy in a sparsely populated bar but failed to attend to a genuine customer.
