An eclectic mix of reviews for a hidden gem of a restaurant. Despite some mishaps noted by customers such as odd smells, syrupy lattes, and inconsistent opening hours, overall, the majority of patrons have raved about the superb food, friendly staff, and reasonable prices. From delicious Sunday roasts to delightful light lunches, this spot tucked away amongst the vineyards is becoming a favored dining destination. With fantastic home-cooked meals, an abundance of homemade cakes, and a warm welcome, it's no wonder this restaurant is quickly becoming a top choice for locals and visitors alike.
