    Restaurant was cold due to air conditioning even though it was busy. Food was not as good as it was a few weeks ago. The chowder had a lot of cracked mussell shells and very little fish. The ceasar salad came with cold bacon, it would have been nice if it was warm. The chicken wings compensated for the poor starters.

    Lovely staff, it was busy for lunch time but service was very quick and polite. Lots of gluten free options and confirmation by staff when food was brought to the table. Portions very generous. I will definitely return.

    Had deep fried brie to start and then could only manage to eat one of two pieces of fish from the battered fish and chips main so the portion sizes may be a little over generous! A good complaint I know. Staff were lovely, place was full, lots of twinkly Xmas lights and garlands with old timey (Dean martin etc) Xmas songs played low
