Great for scenic views
Good for special occasions
Neighborhood gem

This big open space with its easy, informal mood has an open kitchen where Bryn’s team of chefs turn simple, local, seasonal ingredients into extraordinary bistro-style food. Menus are served all day by interesting people who really understand food, and there are no rules, so you can do what you like: tuck into breakfast, graze over small plates at the bar, share a Sunday feast with family, watch the sun go down with friends. Good times with good people, and no distance between you and the beach.

As always wonderful food and very good service. The Festive Menu was great value with little extras including appetisers and coffee thrown in for good measure. This is our 'go to' restaurant for special treats and occasions.

We chose the festive menu and were not disappointed at all. The salmon was melt in the mouth delicious and the turkey dinner was soooooo tasty. The vegetables were outstanding. Too full for a dessert I'm afraid.

We wanted to enjoy a pre Christmas lunch with friends where the food and service wouldn't disappoint, so the Bryn Williams Bistro immediately came to mind. The Xmas menu was varied and very interesting. We had the smoked haddock dish which was delicious and the chocolate & chestnut fondant very cherries and pistacchio was very tasty.

This was our first visit to the restaurant and a pre- Christmas treat. Whilst the setting is great and we were at a table with sea views, overall we were disappointed. The food did not meet our expectations. I had crab rarebit as a starter. It was a smaller portion than expected with little taste of crab. My wife’s choice of bread & slices of meat was better. However our main course of fish pie for two which we had been eagerly anticipating prior to our visit was the biggest disappointment. It seemed to contain little fish amongst the potato and was very bland. It lacked some key ingredient or sauce to bring it to life. We had intended to have desserts but chose not to given our experience today.
