    Summer and call a were attentive, helpful, friendly and welcoming. The service, drinks and food were amazing. It made our anniversary doubly special. We would not hesitate to recommend this gem of a venue. As regulars of long-standing we are always assured of prompt service and fabulous food, drinks and service.

    The Sunday lunch was very nice and tasted very freshly cooked. The only disappointment was the size of the Calamari starters and it would have been nice if pigs in blankets and stuffing were side order options.
