    Absolutely a great Sunday roast though disappointing that the beef was no longer available for our 4.00pm booking. Our only reservation was poor selection of wines, as our preference is Rose there was only a “sweet “choice available ! Rose is so popular currently so it might be a good idea to offer a wider selection of Rose particularly something dry and crisp like a Cotes de Provence ? Just an observation as I would love to return and would highly recommend The Bistro but the wine choice would have to be wider ! 5 ***** for the food and service though !

    Came for lunch with my friend, the food was delicious and eggs were cooked exactly as we requested. The young waitress that served us (sorry didn’t get her name) was really friendly and helpful. Not my first time at the golf club, but the first time for my friend, she throughly enjoyed it and was talking about going again in the future.
