    Went in with my mum and was such a pleasant time. Food was gorgeous…. I had the burger and never tasted meat like it, so succulent!. The young guy that served us was so polite and made us feel at home. Was very cozy and the frozen desert with berries was beautiful too. Decent price compared to Inverness too. Love this place! Been a few times and never fails to leave you feeling good… and full :)
