Christmas Party · 20 guests · December 2023

We had our staff Christmas lunch at The Moat. From the beginning, Rosie was responsive and helpful, & allowed us a lot of flexibility with our booking. We very much enjoyed both the food and the space, and staff were both efficient and helpful. The Moat catered extremely well for our gluten/dairy free guest and everyone enjoyed the food. We had a lovely time.
