Delicious food (we had crab sandwich, crab frittata and crab rarebit! , really kind staff, and a lovely atmosphere inside. My dog was welcomed and the staff kindly sat us in a quieter room for her benefit. Highly recommended, would visit again!

We were unexpectedly blown-away by the food at this delightful, unassuming restaurant. The menu is 'world fusion ' and everything we had was creatively conceived and expertly executed. The Thai chicken curry was one of the finest I 've enjoyed. Great cocktails too especially my frozen margarita. The small courtyard garden is a pretty haven, and everyone was super friendly and welcoming, including to our dog. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip to the South West.

The four of us only had main meals, desert and afogatos. The Greek style slow cooked lamb was fantastic and provided a real “comfort food” experience. The Thai Yellow fish/seafood curry was also a hit. Service was very friendly. I’d not hesitate to go here again. We had the “study” room which provided a quiet and intimate dining experience.

What a fabulous quirky evening we had with private dining in the old sitting room. The eclectic menu didn’t disappoint and coffee and cocktails in the walled garden was perfect. Definitely coming back .
