I have visited this bar a few times for meals at different times and on different days. The bar is never overly busy and seems to have enough waiting staff to cope easily with the customers.However, a few times while orders have been taken quickly enough, there always seems to be quite a long wait in between being served. Also,... More

I have visited the Town many times and am always impressed. The staff are friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable, surroundings are beautiful, food is consistently good and the live music they have on is just what you need on a Friday evening after a hard week. In the past I have visited with friends, my partner, parents, and every time, have... More

Arranged a night off for myself and some friends over the festive period as we always like to catch up after a year of work. Food was absolutely fantastic and I must say the service was equal to that. We were made to feel special and felt the waitress really focussed on our table and the others around. We stayed... More

This is the 2nd time we have used "The Town" in 3 months for our 15th Birthday Party and a Xmas Party. After the first visit we never thought that they would have been able to do anything better but they did. The staff make you feel like royalty from the minute you walk in to the minute you leave....
