Every time a eat here the food and staff are just excellent the plate in front was about 15 which is fair in current prices tbh and two cans fanta. Probably more a family atmosphere than sole dinner all the sole diner tables are squashed together making it feel like out casts. But to be honest can pick any seat you want the staff are so lovley really are.

We called in around 12.30pm today. Very welcoming staff, so accommodating. Food was lovely, good (even generous) portions, served piping hot. Everything was delicious and went down a treat. Got more busy while we were there - obviously a popular place. Will call again and would recommend it to everyone.

Stephen made us feel very welcome in his beautiful restaurant while sitting down with us and having a lovely chat. He and his wife Alex have worked so hard to create this amazing gem with their very friendly and helpful team making us feel so at home with their superb service!!!. The food was so fresh and presented beautifully. I ordered a white chocolate scone with jam and cream.....my god!!! It was that good I came back the next day for more! The quirkiness, thought, and love that went into the decor is plain to be seen...all the beautiful clocks on the walls were at different times....what's time when you're having fun I suppose...amazing!! I can't wait to call in again. Thanks guys...well done!
