"Serves food after 4pm on a Sunday, which seems to be a rare expectation in the town."

"Avoid the central tables in the lower area of Guy's. Sitting there can feel like you're on the central reservation of the M6 as other tables are served."

"Main courses are good, deserts are a rip off. £5.49 for an icecream sundae in a pint glass that's worth about £3.00 tops."

"For the uninitiated, liquor is parsley sauce. Great pies and service, don't listen to the moaners - they probably think proper pies and pasties involve the words Pukka and Ginster."

"Don't forget to ask for every little extra you might want with your meal when you order. Only straws and napkins when you fight your way to the seating."

"Cracking freshly prepared food, amazingly friendly and accommodating staff. The perfect place to be on a stormy December evening!"
