The view of the beach is stunning, and the atmosphere is very relaxed, complemented by friendly and smiling staff. The coffee is great, and the pastries are delicious—they also have a fantastic selection of cakes! However, seating is limited, so it's a good idea to plan your visit if you want to dine in.

We ordered a fish and chips x2 and a ceasar salad with anchovies, about 2 minutes later the waitress came out and made it clear we had to pay then and there, we obliged, And due to the business we could imagine that some patrons possibly could leave without paying and the potential of them never finding them again. We received food timeously which was great. Starting with the salad, we found that the anchovies was pickled fish, unlike the ones you would get in a traditional ceasar salad, the lettuce had not need cleaned and had dirt through out the leaves of lettuce. To the point where we couldn’t excuse it, it was like it was from the ground and cut up on the plate and served… pretty shocking. Next, the battered cod and chips, it had a great batter nice and crispy. pretty par small portion of ships from a bulk supplier and the cod it’s self was really strange, some really hard tough pieces within it, the flesh was like it was dehydrated in places, I can only imagine that it was microwaved pretty good before it was cooked, the mushy peas where terrible they came out with a dark green crust on top like they had been sitting under a hot pass for god knows how long. Service was non existent other taking an order, the waiter was not seen again, we sat there for about 40 minutes waiting for a check in to bring up the issue of the salad that was pretty much a risk to health to consume, yet nothing, service was shockingly poor for place In Such a prime location, and food obviously absolute let down, overall I wouldn’t recommend, left feeling robbed and they failed to deliver in and sort of way….
