    Ambiance is lovely, food is pretty decent, but I had booked this for a birthday and explicitly called & emailed in advance asking if a candle could be put on the dessert we ordered. I was assured this would happen, and when it came to the surprise, they didn’t do it. I understand it happens, but it was disappointing.

    Beautiful cafe right by the station. The pizza was delicious. We got a Diavola and Procuitto de Funghi which was fresh, and full of flavour. Cozy ambience and good seating.

    Brilliant local restaurant- had excellent meal with friends. From wonderful pasta filled with butternut to perfectly cooked fish —& the lamp rump with Borletti beans! To fish the fig panacotta was sublime

    The food is ok but the service is too slow. Prices are very high for what you get.
