We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at the Union, the staff were very knowledgeable and friendly, there was an excellent selection of local wines, and the food was delicious.
Another lovely meal all 3 courses were amazing particularly the pork belly which was the best we’ve ever tasted. They also did a lovely plate with 3 sweets on it for my other half’s birthday which were all home made and so tasty. It is such a relaxed atmosphere here that it’s a real pleasure to eat here. Their Sunday roasts are the best!!! It is now our favourite restaurant to go to and we’ll be back very soon!!!
