Went here for lunch and ordered the fish and chips after being assured they were hand battered and cooked fresh on premises, they were cheap frozen pre battered and then burnt by chef !! Sister said she would have 2 sausages instead but took them home for the local fox as they were the worst of cheap frozen sausages !!! I chose to have the omelette as thought that would be a safe option, wrong, the underside was black so whole thing tasted burnt they even had the cheek to charge for it after me sending it back uneaten. Feel really sorry for waitress as she was lovely but whoever is playing at being a cook really needs to step away and get someone who knows how to prepare food so it is edible !! Will never go back to eat but they do a decent cup of tea.

Not a good lunch. Were told the cod was hand battered, but no, it was a nearly cremated frozen fish portion, and can't even hazard a guess at what type of fish. Good fries and nice fresh salad, but had to send the"fish"back. I ordered sausages instead, but the meat content was zero, so I didn't eat them either, they were quite unpleasant. Strange really, as the best pork butchers for miles is a few doors down, so why not get proper sausages.? My sister ordered an omlette in place of the burnt fish, but the omlette was also burnt on the underside. Felt sorry for the waitress who was clearly embarrassed. Nice mug of tea though. Won't be going back.
