    Lovely place to meet and eat for any group size. Staff were friendly and the food was superb. Those scones were to die for! Just beware the car park does get full!

    Booked this as a belated Mother’s Day with my mum and future mother in law who is visiting from the UK. Requested to sit beside the window to see the wildlife, which was given and we had a great view of the birds. Unfortunately, the only option with the eggs Benedict was to have chipotle hollandaise, and no option for the traditional way of just regular hollandaise. Because of this, mum was flustered to choose something else and ordered the veggie stack which was very underwhelming for her. Apart from that, everything was lovely.

    We went at a windy morning and I could only booked an outdoor table, the manager is very nice to accommodate us into indoor sofa area to share table with a very nice couple. We all had a good time. Thanks.

    Enjoyed our lunch. I felt like the staff could have been more attentive at times. But the food was great and I felt good value for money.

    We had tea and scones and it was delightful, it was 3pm and the scones tasted like they’d just come out of the oven - heaven!

    Had afternoon tea and the scones were amazing. Service was spot on and even though it was extremely busy (Easter Saturday) the staff were fantastic - efficient, friendly and well organised. Looking forward to coming back to try the lunch menu.
