    The food and the service was incredible, the only negative was the family who bought there incredibly loud kids and made no effort to control there volume, not the restaurants fault. Wish we got our servers name as they were amazing and very accommodating

    The fish was lovely, batter was light and crispy. The chips were pale and tasteless. I asked for potatoes with mine. The menu said they were ‘buttered new potatoes’ they weren’t new and they weren’t buttered. Peas (garden not mushy) were tinned. Grey-green colour and tinned. One glass of wine (nice) one bottle of water, £48. Very disappointing.

    A great place to have fish in all styles A proper fish restaurant not a fish and chip cafe. Though you can get fish and chips. Today we had moules (mussels) and sole meunieaire.
