We enjoyed our visit,but it was a very cold day outside and as we were sat opposite the entrance we felt cold after a while,we thoroughly enjoyed the food but the chorizo and hash browns were difficult to get out of a high sided bowl with a knife and fork. Service was attentive and relaxed. We will definitely return here again

From walking in to leaving the whole afternoon was beautiful. We’ve been meaning to come here for a few years after hearing many good things and we weren’t disappointed, the staff were so friendly and attentive, and the quality of the food was stunning. I think we’ll be coming here for our special occasions more often!
