    Very friendly service and nice attitude. Drinks were good and varied. Food was good but couldn’t decide if the special stater of grilled sardines were actually grilled and if they were fresh, looked and tasted like they were out of a jar/tin, no evidence of grill heat or crispy skins. Tasty mind you. Catch of the day was whole plaice and served with season greens and mash, looked great and tasty. But not served hot and ever so slightly undercooked under the grill? Pudding was strawberry cheesecake, it was delicious and surprisingly good for vegan. The maitre de was excellent and good humoured as her only assistant disappeared at 8pm so she was overworked.

    Very nice. Welcoming staff who were very pleasant. Menu was nice and food good quality. Three of us dined and two out of the three chose well and had lovely meals. Scallops to start and mussels main. I opted for catch of the day which was a baked plaice. It was swimming in oil and not great but that was just my taste. Overall a pleasant evening and would recommend and go back again.

    My mother and I decided to use the small plates as a tapas rather than have a big meal and it was delicious. The Sardines are the best I’ve ever eaten but the quality of the food is experienced throughout the menu. The table was comfortable and well appointed and chairs comfortable. On top of all the above, the staff were excellent, good service and helpful and polite staff make the dining experience all the more better. Well done to all who work there.

    The location is brilliant for visiting Lulworth Cove. On arrival the staff couldn’t be more helpful. They seemed genuinely pleased to serve us without being intrusive. We had starters & main course - both were absolutely delicious. I would definitely recommend this venue for location, staff & food.
