No number to take to table so waitress running around with orders not having a clue. My bottle of cider was plunked on table, not offered a glass. I am a lady and DO NOTdrink out of bottle. Had to get up and get myself a glass which was not oncounter but a shelf to the side of reception. Only 3 of us. The steak burger ordered by one of came out and even before he bit into it I could tell it was cheap, nasty fatty tough meat, which he confirmed. The to8ng barista man had impeccable manners and was far too classy for this place. It should be shut down as it was the worst. May pasta should have had salsa verdi with ot as advertised....missing and Worcestershire sauce instead!!!

The meal was mean in the extreme. Had tacos. Very few beans and no sign of mince. Will NEVER go back there. read more The meal was mean in the extreme. Had tacos. Very few beans and no sign of mince. Will NEVER go back there.

The staff is extremely friendly and gave me a great suggestion to try the chicken tenders when I was unsure of what to order. I highly recommend this place! The only thing I would suggest is to possibly rename the dish to "Chicken tenders and coleslaw" instead of "chicken tenders and salad", but regardless, the meal was delicious!
