Lovely Sunday lunch! We were a party of 10 on holiday for the weekend. I phoned Saturday evening to see if they could fit us in and they were nothing but accommodating! Great service with a smile and the food was delicious. Any extras we wanted we asked for and got!

What a fantastic restaurant.Service was friendly, polite and efficient.Food was great.Location seems bizarre from the outside. It feels as though you're going to the post office, or community center but nestled among them is a wonderful venue.It was very quiet when we arrived and it transpired that we were the only booking, this boggles my mind because it was exceptional.Absolutely worth the trip to visit!!

We hired Guy and Terry to manage the catering for our wedding and were very happy with the results. Our guests loved the food and are still talking about it!

Couldn't find the restaurant at first, it doesn't look very extravagant outside - it is a cafe/post office during the day and it converts to a fine dining restaurant/bistro in the evening. Good variety of options and the service was great! Really enjoyed our dinner - shared baked camembert platter is good, seared tuna and roast pork belly are both perfectly cooked. Brownie was warm and gooey. Would recommend anyone passing by to go :)

Bad meal. Pint was nice.Starter - scallops - 3 tiny scallops with a few chunks of black pudding. Red flag when the best part of the plate was the pea puree. Prefer my black pudding to me smoked and full of flavour. Also some sort of gravy on the plate. Considering this was a £2 supplement this was very disappointing.Main - Tuna - tuna steak with some boiled carrots, boiled potatoes (best part) and another gravy, this time flavoured with curry. Altogether lacking in flavour and texture. Really expected more from this.The setting was interesting - not a traditional restaurant setting, which to me meant the food needed to be great. It wasn't.

We went here on Google reviews and one in particular who said it deserved to be Michelin star and the reviews weren't wrong. The food was out of this world 🌎 We can't recommend it enough. The staff were so helpful and friendly. Don't be put off with the look of the building because as you step inside, it's really nice and welcoming/relaxing. A hidden Gem! We will definitely be going back ❤

Surprising place, hidden behind the main road, seems to be a community center which someone with a passion has taken to heart to make into an enjoyable restaurant, Food was great, chips super crunchy on the outside and soft inside, steak was near perfect, easy to slice through with a butter knife, we enjoyed the baked camembert and chocolate fondue sharing plates and the large splashes of colour from the artwork really helped to give the restaurant a pleasant and modern feel. Staff were very friendly and offered to doggy bag the food for us. Would recommend

Amazing food very tasty. The atmosphere was relaxed and I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. We had the Sunday lunch and found each dish was great. I had the cajun salmon as my main and a sharing fondue for pudding. Only issue was it got very hot inside. Presumably no air con but it was about 28 degrees outside this week anyway.
