    Fantastic food, great vegetarian options. Second visit in 2 months and will be back again. Nice informal setting and reasonably good value for a great quality menu.

    Booked mermaid for a first date and I’m glad booked this spot. Our waiter was great (don’t recall his name). The restaurant was empty on the Tuesday night and we had the place to ourselves. The steak was incredible and perfectly cooked. Ambiance was lovely. The seating area is a converted, covered outdoor area but doesn’t feel like you are outside and is well heated. Would book again!

    Always an enjoyable experience. Fergal makes you feel so relaxed and very much at home. Food is first class, today we shared several courses, all with great flavours. It's the the 5th time I have brought newbies to this hidden gem.
