    Upstairs was busy, downstairs where we were was quieter but still filled up. Staff are amazing and the menu choices were wonderful. The specials sounded delicious too. The atmosphere on a rainy night was comforting and we were well looked after. Our water glasses were regularly filled and we were asked how the food was. It was absolutely delicious - we both had options we hadn’t tried before and were both very happy with our choices. If I was local I would definitely eat there regularly.

    Intimate dinning experience with only room for 10 covers. Food and service was good Only minor thing is the toilets is not in the restaurant, instead you are given a key fob and asked to go outside and down the side walkway …..clean and tidy toilet but absolutely freezing as no heater in it But as I say that’s only a minor issue, I’m there for the food and drink which was excellent

    Adult son wanted a "nice pizza" for birthday celebration - 6 adults, with some differing dietary requirements (veg, etc). All were catered for. Cocktails also. Pizzas were fantastic quality, Linguini, and Risottos were also one of the best had for a long while. Wasn't busy about half full, very good service, and a good night all round. We will be back!
