    I cannot recommend this place enough. It’s a lovely family holiday treat-the food is absolutely delicious, brilliant value and the staff are really friendly. Chose the shed if you can’t bear to be outdoors but honestly you’ll be plenty warm outdoors too-between heaters and blankets they’ve got it covered!

    We love the garlic bread starters 😋 although there is a variety of starters to choose from and a variety of different pizzas for us all. The food is absolutely delicious as always. Also their sour dough freshly baked bread we just had to have for lunch the next day. Food is just top notch, the staff are all very friendly and helpful. The place is always buzzing, and absolutely brilliant vibe every time we go. Just wish we lived closer we'd be there every week. Hopefully we'll be back up next month and again over the summer months. Can't wait 😍
