We have visited many times - but the consistently high standard of food and service is why we keep returning. The way we do it - 3 courses a la carte plus nice wines - means it isn’t cheap - but it IS excellent standard & actually if you had the set menu and cheaper wine it would be much cheaper - but still great food. We like to go for special Occasions (birthdays etc) and to push the boat out but whatever your reason for going, the food is always delicious & the service friendly and efficient. I can highly recommend it! Thanks Terry & team as always.

The food as per usual was lovely. A few of us ordered from set menu and we all mentioned how small the portions were. However, still delicious.

Excellent food the red mullet was perfection. Service s little slow but friendly. Chairs and seating not that comfortable but ok for lunch. Not sure I would want to sit for dinner with a large group of friends. But I would most definitely return for the food which was some of the best I’ve ever had - and that’s what you want at the end of the day ; amazing food.
