Had a fantastic night at The Church on the Hill. The steak was amazing and cooked perfectly – one of the best I’ve had in a while. We followed it up with Dave’s speedy quiz, which was great fun and really added to the atmosphere. A brilliant evening with great food, entertainment, and friendly service. Highly recommended!

My steak was just a bad cut. On complaining, they brought me a new steak which was excellent along with some hot extras. The service was excellent as well.
