All tables reserved but still serving food that takes far too long to come and risks turfing people outside in the cold. Food was only a snack and was appalling, coke on draught made the drinks taste off. Certainly not designed to have an open mic session as well as people eating on reserved tables. No space for musicians. Damn shame as could be a lovely atmosphere but no effort made to improve or accommodate. Perhaps more could be used of the outside space

A lovely hidden gem with great food and very friendly staff. We went for lunch a couple of times and also for drinks after going to the beach. read more A lovely hidden gem with great food and very friendly staff. We went for lunch a couple of times and also for drinks after going to the beach.

After driving 25 minutes based on a recommendation, I found it to be disappointing in every aspect. The ambiance was lackluster and devoid of any music or warm welcome, making it difficult to enjoy a pleasant dining experience. The decor appeared neglected, taking the "rustic" theme too far without any appealing charm. The food, which was at best mediocre, was the most bland and uninspired meal I have had in a while. Furthermore, the long wait for our food only added to our dissatisfaction. In all honesty, this establishment desperately needs some nurturing, attention, and a complete overhaul.
