Awful !!!!!! Such a lovely spot in the harbour. But I would not recommend and would never return. Very rude person behind bar and the place was filthy. Give your money to someone else.

Absolutely disgusting, filthy place, barman brought our coffee over and presented the spoon and sugar from his cardigan pocket. Spoon was filthy which I asked to be reached. Ugh!!!!! He was so unhygienic.... Will never go there again. It was awful. Toilets you won't want to go in.

Walked in and felt unwelcome right away. The staff were extremely rude, they seem only to be jolly with locals. We caught the staff rollling their eyes and scouring at us. Even if we smiled directly at them they would look away like you're not...

I entered the restaurant and immediately left. The experience was awful, with rude and unwelcoming glares from drunken locals who appeared to be intoxicated. The atmosphere was not pleasant and the cleanliness of the establishment was questionable.
