    One of the many joys of this charming restaurant is the menu changing monthly. The quality of the food aside, the wonderful service that is like clockwork blends so well into the cosy setting Tim and Victoria have achieved. You MUST go David Fowler

    Loved that the team were able to accommodate our 6m old in a pram considering that the walkway is already quite narrow. Nothing was too much trouble.
