£12.95 for a standard size carvery is getting beyond what is an acceptable price for a meal. No roast parsnips either. Other carveries are still below £10

I find the staff here extremely helpful and polite, which makes for a pleasurable experience! I have booked a party for next weekend for my little one so I will update after that. Other than that it's a great place to kill an hour and tire out some little legs on a rainy day. Can get very busy on a weekend, though! If you buy a monthly pass it works out much cheaper and you get 10% off drinks too which is handy. Also you can order from the carvery to eat whilst the little ones play!
