The craftsmanship at this Southbourne restaurant is outstanding. They offer a wide selection of ales, beers, lagers, apple wine, spirits, and a well-stocked bottle fridge. The ambiance is very pleasant, making it a great place to visit regularly.
This is a beautiful, cozy spot with plenty of options to choose from, as well as a well-stocked refrigerator.
Haven't tried the food but they let you bring your own food or takeaway into the bar to eat at your table. Great selection too. Love this place. Price per person: £10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
