Really enjoyed it. Have been wanting to try them for a while now and glad I did. If you are gluten free this is a great place as everything is GF on menu. Service was great and food was delish. It was smaller than I thought and had different spaces to eat. We were upstairs in a small room with only 4 tables. It was cosy and the chairs were comfy. Downstairs seemed more relaxed with seating at bar and a couple tables. I had the gnocchi and my mum the steak frites. Both were delish. Another dinner had the special burger which looked yum and another had schnitzel which looked huge. Will visit again
