    I cannot fault this place. A very busy summer evening, and yet the staff were calm, polite, attentive, managed our expectations around food wait and then delivered sooner than expected. The seafood and what they do with local veg is beautiful and delicious. Everyone feels welcome, all ages, big groups, small parties, solo diners. I love it so much. Thank you.

    We were well looked after from start to finish. Really lovely food, lots of choice and good value. Staff were lovely and attentive would definitely recommend. Can’t wait to return to try the Korean chicken burger my friend had it looked amazing. I had the chicken with bacon and shallot butter with chips it also came with marmite mayo that was a game changer 😀
