  • "Food is nice. Portion is right and price is affordable."
  • "Lovely food and great atmosphere! Would fully recommend and I will definitely be returning!"

Cons:

  • "Price is quite similar to many in the area but you’d hope for a bit better for the price."
  • "The fish and chips were expensive for what it was, hate to say this but it was like a pizza from Lidl."
  • "Overpriced for what you get. The restaurant is so confused with its menu & it's interior environment."
  • "More expensive than some spots in town, less expensive than others. The food is pretty good, the atmosphere is inviting, if you're a lone traveler there's a good chance you can strike up a conversation with locals in the offseason."
