We had the lunch menu which was really good. My husband had the sardines followed by the chicken, he said the chicken was the best he had out . Moist and flavourful. I had the trombocino followed by the monkfish. The monkfish was really lovely. I had the chocolate pudding which was divine.

We had a fantastic birthday lunch there. The chef owners Liam and Ryan pulled out all the stops to make it special. The food is imaginative and absolutely delicious and the set lunch is very good value.
