    As usual The Galley never disappoints. It was exceptional. A local gem and a must eat restaurant. We took friends who had never sampled the outstanding food at the Galley-needless to say they were not disappointed. We will be back.

    An excellent meal, beautifully presented, with attentive service. Have been a number of times before, dinner, weekday lunch and delicious Sunday Lunch. Waiting to sample the Afternoon Tea which my daughter tells me is lovely. Well worth a visit.

    A gem of a place. Food was amazing, had ribeye steak which was so juicy. Red wine was spot on. Cheese board and coffee were also delicious. Ships passing by the window as you eat.
