| - I have been here a few times over the years, and have always liked it. It's more expensive than grabbing lunch elsewhere near work, but it's great for a special occasion. I brought a couple of coworkers there for a birthday lunch on Friday, which is their buffet lunch day. The selection was great, with many different dishes to choose from, lots of vegetarian options (for those that care about that sort of thing), a variety of salads, cheeses, desserts, teas, etc. They have dishes ranging from the standard roast beef to cauliflower and cheese to fish to Indian-style dishes. The only downside is the dishes are not labeled so you are left guessing what the mystery food is ... a little difficult for someone like me who does not like seafood. I would recommend the cauliflower and cheese, this one roast beef dish they had, and this one cake with I think pears and caramel in it. The server we had was friendly and helpful, and since it is usually not that crowded (when there are no events booked) the atmosphere was quiet and relaxing. We have also been there for events over the years and it is a great venue, with good food, friendly servers, and of course the pool tables. I love the atmosphere with the old building and all the old furniture. This is not the cheapest of lunch options in the area but I would definitely recommend it for special occasions, for entertaining clients, or for special events.
