We ordered Chilli Scamble and a Goodness Bowl with grilled Halloumi - both very yummy. It was a hot day and we sat in the inside, close to the entrance. Hardly any air flowing. It would help to have ceiling fans to aid in seating comfort. Otherwise, lovely customer service and good food.

Very nice High Tea for special occasion. Quite pricey so would only go there for special occasion. Staff were friendly and chatty, but not very attentive. Had to ask for drinks menu twice (first person obviously forgot.) Had to walk to other side of restaurant to order second drink as no staff were in the vicinity for some time.
