Sunday roastFriendly staff
Absolutely Delish Sunday carvery, roast beef was melt in your mouth, carrots cabbage, mash potatoes, garlic potatoes, crochet potatoes and gravy, what a plate full, it was lovely and hot right too yhe last fork full.
Well done to all the staff and chefs . We will be back.
Thank you
I love Carpenters. The food and service is excellent. The girl on the till was pleasant and very helpful. She gave a customer a glass of water while we were there, even though there was a water station and he never as much as said thank you. The place was very busy and the staff kept on top of it all. After our meal we went into the bar to finish our drinks and it was also busy. It was a great atmosphere. There was great craic going on. I recommend Carpenters to everyone.
Excellent carvery lunch, meat freshly cut as serving. Very friendly chef & staff. Dinner price very reasonable & plenty on the plate
