    Great pizzas..cacciatorino and diavola are favourites. Service can pqtchy but that’s probably because it’s always busy. Kids meals are generous in size and the handout chips are popular with the young ones

    The food was fantastic, everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. The mortadella was amazing. Staff were good, a little more warmth and friendliness rather than pure professionalism would have added another star for service!
