My dad could not tell the difference between his real Steak Burger and my Impossible Burger! The staff, namely Chris, were so accommodating to my Mum’s dietary requirements, removing ingredients she could not eat and replacing them with new ones which she was very happy with. They were also very friendly to our new puppy who can be very excitable and jumpy which they did not mind. We stayed for hours admiring the view and testing all the delicious drinks on the menu. We will certainly be back! Thank you so much Chris and the Park Tavern Team!”
