“ My first visit to this pub, friendly service, good choice on the menu and wasn't disappointed with the food, absolutely delicious. ”
“ One beef dinner, one lamb dinner for my parents and a cheesecake for me because I’d eaten elsewhere. Lamb and beef dinners are a medium and were huge (photos below). Piping hot, lovely cuts of meat and plenty of veg and gravy. Only complaint is we weren’t offered sauces (we also forgot to ask for them so this is partially our fault). Cheesecake was white chocolate and strawberry and was absolutely divine. All reasonably priced too. Will be back to try the main menu in the future. Thanks Gatsbys! ”
“ I haven't been in The Gatsby for quite a while but today I had the chicken carbonara with garlic bread and man it's one of the best meals I've had for years! Delicious! ”
“ Always a good place to meet for food and drinks during the day. On Saturday nights they play some great dance/house music upstairs although some of the clientele are barely of drinking age. Downstairs is always a good for a more relaxed vibe. Good to see this place thriving in a part of the city thats dying a death. Highly recommended. ”
