Excellent service with very polite, friendly and attentive staff who were very helpful in advising one of the party who had dietary requirements. We all ate from the set menu which gave a good choice of interesting dishes. All the food was very well cooked, delicious and well presented. The restaurant has a pleasant , friendly atmosphere without being noisy. Good value for money and very close to car parking. Can thoroughly recommend.

Great service - very personable staff with a bit of classic professionalism. Food (onion soup, crudités, moulds frites and Breton fish stew) was all lovely. Portions adequate but if you have a big appetite you might want to order extra sides.
