    Have been a few time generally all good, salads could do with being a bit more exciting and we asked for a side that did not turn up, also had 2 lots of bread as a starter as wasn’t clear olives came with bread,but generally a good atmosphere, busy and food overall very nice. One of the few independents in Basingstoke and pretty reliable.

    Absolutely loved it. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, and the service was great. Excellent food (2 meat eaters and 1 veggie). An excellent wine was recommended with the offer to change it if we didn’t like it - no need, it was lovely. A little pricier than some places but definitely worth every penny.
