    We are regulars and travel from Newquay. We asked for a window table and we got one. Food was lush ad always, slightly annoying that a family sat to one side of us unfortunately with a child ego kept crawling around the tables and knocking my phone out my jacket. I slightly moved the table and asked my Daughter to just turn her chair at an angle , so I could move away from the child who had challenging behaviour and was constantly knocking into me. A waitress told us to move the chair back. So I did but wasn't happy as that meant we didnt enjoy our meal due to this annoying child. It was a relief when they lwft!.

    Food was very good, the nicest fish and chips I’ve had in a long time. However it was a quite expensive fish and chips!
