Our reviews

  • positive review  First time visitor and a very happy customer ? I had a variety of sausages including some Old English that they threw in for me to try...suffice to say they went down a treat with me and my mates. I also had 2 pork steaks which were superb, so different than supermarket which seem to give out a lot of water. I'm very impressed and you'll be seeing me sooner rather than later.
