We all enjoyed a cooked breakfast although the sausages weren’t very nice, cheap cafe sausages rather than quality ones. The staff were polite and friendly. We liked the decor and the Christmas decorations. Would return again.

Ordered my food and it was served quickly and hot. The staff were friendly and the value very good. The place was clean and tidy with staff clearing tables as customers left.When in need of food and in the area I will definitely visit again

A standard breakfast was delivered in good time and was reasonable. Probably not a “bistro”. A ramp is provided for wheelchair bound customers. A good, relaxed morning and I will return.

The staff were extremely rude and were quite abrupt with us. The food came and tbh it did not look appetising, greasy and cheap ingredients. Then the back door opened and the waiter/ COOK, and wat seemed like his whole family of non speaking friends or family were Smoking, and the smell of the smoke was drifting into the restaurant. At that point we stopped eating. Luckily at this point we both found short dark hairs on our plates. Only one guy working there at the time, so obviously his short dark hair, seeing as he wasn't wearing hat. So all in all this whole experience was a complete waste of time and money. Hence we won't be going back. I will not give my hard earned money on rude, unhygienic cheap food.
