We booked the Mother’s Day lunch. The food was delicious and plentiful. The ladies were treated to a rose each and a complimentary cocktail from the roaming cart. The staff were very attentive. We had two people with special dietary requirements. They were both catered for perfectly. The views are spectacular. Highly recommend this venue.
