We had our team Christmas meal here and it was great. It was very close to the office and had a good menu so was an easy choice for us. Our lunch was set for 2pm and the table was available on arrival and the we had our food labels ready to go. We went for the 3 course apart from a few who joined on the day who had to go with their regular menu. The food was great with some great christmas selections in the menu and the portion sizes were huge. The extra veg for the table was a great add-on and the service was excellent. 3 stars due to the staff getting some dietary info very wrong for one of us. Apart from that, a great venue for Christmas lunch.

Great to see Wood Street open again. You can't stand around of course, everyone needs to be seated to be Covid secure. Food and drinks were excellent, great service too. Definitely worth a visit if you can.

We had a fabulous festive evening with my team of 26 people. We had an area with a pool table and dart board, which kept everyone entertained all evening. The festive buffet was very reasonably priced (there was plenty to go round) and the service was brilliant. Thanks to James, Cerys and Heidi for all your efforts!

I've eaten here twice before, and both times it was excellent. This time I braved hosting the work Christmas party here - being the organiser it always puts a bit of pressure on. Thankfully all the food was again excellent - how many years have you had disappointing Christmas meals for work do's? Save yourself the disappointment next year, and book Wood Street. I've no idea that turkey could have that much flavour, plus the Neck Oil was actually tasty. Remember when Neck Oil was a good beer? Well, it still is here.
