  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighbourhood 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.

    excellent food and service as always, visited many times now and the only slight negative is the limited menu choices. Maybe offer more local fish / scallops / mussels etc

    Disappointed after visiting other restaurants with similar accolades that this visit did not meet the same standards due to one staff members poor customer service. Unfortunately due to my recent hip replacement I was slower walking to the restaurant and got there at 12.30 instead of 12.15. I apologised immediately and explained we would be gone by two to watch a rgc match. The waiter was clearly not happy and said to us each time he came to the table we would need to be gone by 2pm. We actually rushed then to finish by 1.45. I also asked if I could have an extra slice of bread with the soup and he reluctantly said he'd have to ask the chef. My friend had the fish fingers but had to ask for tartare sauce. These looked over cooked. Over all a disappointing experience. On a positive note the dessert, creme brulee, was delicious and much larger in proportion than the other dishes. The soup starter was flavoursome but as I was having as a main dish not a starter it was a small portion. Would I come back, probably not!

    Thoroughly enjoyable breakfast with a beautiful sunny beach view. The staff went above and beyond to get us a fabulous seat. Lovely relaxing atmosphere and once again- excellent food .

    The overall experience was pleasant. The food and service were okay, meeting expectations but not standing out. The ambience was enjoyable, creating a comfortable setting, and the view was truly exceptional—a highlight of the visit. One improvement I would suggest is offering a selection of non-alcoholic wine and sparkling fizz to cater to a broader range of preferences. This small addition could enhance the experience significantly.

    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.
