    A very informative and helpful waiter . A nice Italian coastal wine . Probably the best tiger prawns I have ever had set off beautifully with a hint of chilli but not overpowering, and a little sea salt . On a special happy hour offer do even better. We both had the ray wing for mains. Fresh excellent cooked just right with a nice butter and caper sauce and some very decent crispy fries . Top quality not cheap but worth it.

    Very Nice Sunday lunch. Would have given the food 5 stars but felt the oven roasted monkfish could have benefitted from a sauce accompaniment. The gravy jus supplied just didn’t seem suitable to complete the fish dish. Difficult one I know merging fish and a Sunday roast presentation. Service excellent

    Had a portion of bread between three of us and enjoyed that. Had the hake on a bed of sauce which was tasty. The platform chips was different but very nice and my friends said their large bowl of mussels was also good. I have to say overall the food was nice. We’re not old codgers yet but we did need to use the torch on our mobiles to read the menu. Definitely needs to be printed larger and bolder.
