Location and Atmosphere

Pros:

  • "A great place to escape for an evening drink with the option of cosy indoor seating, or views over the sea that make you feel that you might almost be on some far-flung holiday."

Cons:

  • "I felt the atmosphere was very noisy and seating not very comfortable."
  • "Great food and atmosphere but fairly limited menu. We sat outside on a windy day and they had heaters on and glass screens to stop the wind which was good."
  • "Delicious bacon in a brioche bun! Lovely conservatory seating area - not quite in and not quite out! Perfect for the winter months."
  • "Liked the look of the menu but unfortunately none of the staff control seating and so all the benches that seat 4 were ALL occupied by couples."
  • "A great place to visit, fantastic view, great service, clean and looks amazing inside and the steak was out of this world."
  • "The staff were really friendly, and very attentive. Has a nice view and vegetarian options."
  • "Appalling covid safety waiters with no masks and the ones that did have them were only just covering there mouth let alone the nose."
  • "The place looks great perfect sitting area outside for hot days. We went on saturday and had a lunch time meal."
