Lovely fish and chips, and a bottle of beer! Friendly service in a warm, welcoming cafe. Plenty of on street parking outside where we could park our motorhome.

Great food at a decent price. Good atmosphere, nice surroundings but the best bit are the staff. Good craic, quirky, good at their jobs. Highly recommend a visit if you are interested in the area, probably best to book a table if you want dinner and they do close quite early.

A friend and I dined here for breakfast, we had American Pancake breakfast and Pancakes with bacon and syrup and they were delicious. We also had lattes and it’s the best latte I’ve ever had! It’s worth mentioning they do alternative milk for them with intolerances/allergies - lots of cakes also!! The staff were very friendly and polite. Service was quick even though it got really busy, really quickly We enjoyed it that much we are going back to try the dinner menu next review coming up...... Well what can I say the dinner menu did not disappoint. I was gutted I missed the lasagna on the specials menu as lasagna is my favourite dish and I only missed it as it was sold out due to its popularity. Instead we both had Fish and Chips and wow it was delicious the fish was lightly battered and we could tell the fish was fresh. The fish was that large of couldn’t even finish mine and I felt rather guilty when they took my plate back into the kitchen. The chips were cooked to perfection and the salad was lovely, it wasn’t just any plain salad either it was drizzled in balsamic vinegar and went really well with the fish and chips! I’m so glad we choose to come back! Amazing place to eat, amazing food, amazing staff! Thank you

Best fish supper I've ever had hands down!! I will be dreaming about those chips for years to come! And apparently according to our waiter it was all gluten free (which blew my mind because normally gluten flavour ) Venue is lovely and staff very friendly...with my only regret being having not partaken in the delicious looking cakes on offer! We will be back!
