Lets start with location- a little hard to find. But thats not a huge deterrent. The building is obviously old, and because of that I think its hard to keep the place cool when its 111 outside. It was a little warm in there.
Now the food. I started with the leek soup and omg it was tasty! The hubby had the garlic jalepeno fries and they were meh. A little burnt with no real garlic taste and a few canned, chopped jalepenos dumped on top. The pasties were pretty darn good. I had the minted lamb. The hint of mint was evident but not overwhelming like it could have been. My husband had the bangers and mash. The sausage had a wonderful sage flavor and the dish on the whole was on point. I think that one was better than mine, but both were good. The red wine sauce was definitely as good as everyone says! The banana bread beer was ok. I didnt see what all the hype was about. Now for dessert! OMG!!! That banoffee pie!!! There is something magical about that caramel. Im surprised more people havent raved about it! The sticky toffee pudding was on point as well! Yummy!
Now service- I dont typically comment on service or factor it into an overall rating, but it was a little awkward. The guy wasnt too friendly, nor was he attentive. Not horrible, but just awkward is all I can say. I felt a little uncomfortable asking for anything.
