    The service was excellent and the food, though this is a fairly expensive restaurant, was worth the price for a special occasion. Sunday dinners were expertly prepared. Children’s pizzas were delicious. Staff were great with my kids.

    So lucky to have this restaurant on my doorstep ;) Came with friends and sat outside, service thoughtful and the heat lamps were turned on without us asking once the evening cooled off. Sophie made us all laugh as usual ;) The sea bass was cooked to perfection, the other dishes delicious - what’s not to love…

    The restaurant has been extended and looks really inviting. The outside space is nicely screened from the road. The staff were nice and friendly and professional. The menus were extensive and it was easy to make a choice. There was a lunch time menu and a special board. The food was excellent very well presented, very tasty and plenty. We would definitely dine here again. One small thing is the toilets were a bit shabby, it would have been nice to see them updated.
