    Really enjoyed our lunch here. Staff were helpful and there was a good choice of food, all of which was very tasty. The place has an interesting casual vibe, which is relaxing, with wooden tables and a buzz of chatter. There is a tree in the centre, which was seasonally decorated, which added to the sense of place. My mushroom soup (soup of the day), came with two pieces of toasted sourdough, and was an excellent soup. My companions were equally happy with their options, the breakfast burrito, fish and chips and a cheese omelette. The bathrooms are downstairs, and I did like the sign on the doors, oddly a lady having to cross her legs.

    Average experience at our first time visit! Dinner time. Firstly, the staff judged us because we didn’t have reservations, however, during our time, the only 10-15% table were full. Secondly, the waiting time was not good, longer than we expected. Mushroom soup was tasty, lamb steak was okaying. Pesto aubergine was not good, the aubergine does not enough, was kinda eating only pesto. Service charge can be seen and it is higher for this service.

    Superb service and customer standards. Enjoyed a tasty burger, home made fries and a lovely Thai red curry. The mocktails were made with the same standards as normal cocktails sans alcohol. Pity I was too full to sample desserts but next time! Well priced too. Highly recommended.
