Interesting menu with loads of choice. The &#39;build your own&#39; sharing plates were a fun idea. My table went for the grilled halloumi and the lamb skewers, both solid. The flatbread was a bit dry though. Still, a good spot for a casual group meal.

Stumbled upon this spot on a walk. The cheese and onion pie was really good, and the price was decent.

First time trying shatkora lamb here, and it was spot on. The meat was so tender and fell right off the bone. Really enjoyed that unique, slightly bitter citrus flavour from the shatkora. A proper taste of something different.

Been coming here for years, and Nina always remembers my usual order. That kind of consistent, friendly service is what keeps me coming back.

Came by for a quick lunch. The haddock was fried just right, batter was light and not oily. Chips were crispy and the portion was decent. Hit the spot.

The lamb shank was the standout. Slow-cooked for hours, the meat just fell off the bone. Rich, deep flavour from the red wine sauce, and the mash underneath soaked it all up perfectly. A proper, hearty dish.

Cozy spot, really clean inside. I liked the little details in the ladies&#39; room, like the nice hand soap and fresh flowers. The whole place just feels fresh and looked after.

The staff were so sweet playing Happy Birthday for my friend&#39;s little one! Made the whole table smile. Food was good for the price too.

The chefs chatting while they cook is a nice touch. You learn a bit about where the local ingredients come from. It makes the meal feel a bit more personal, which is a good way to add value beyond just the plate.

Lovely environment &amp; foodExtremely pleasant staffI pre ordered a bottle for our arrival &amp; it was there for us right away.A lovely night to celebrate our wedding anniversary.

The Berlin burger was huge on that homemade bun, really hit the spot. The falafel platter looked great at the next table too. Just a solid, no-fuss meal.

The takeaway packaging was really thoughtful, sturdy boxes that kept everything warm and separate. Perfect for a big order like ours, and it was all ready right when they said.

Service was prompt and professional. They handled a last-minute booking change without any fuss. Staff were attentive but not intrusive. Good to see a place that gets the basics right.

Really appreciate the freshness of the ingredients here. Had the grilled salmon salad for lunch and the greens were crisp, the fish tasted just-cooked. It&#39;s a reliable spot for a light, healthy meal. The happy hour prices are a nice bonus.

The burritos are huge! Couldn&#39;t finish mine, but the spicy sauce was so good. Perfect for sharing with a friend.

Been coming here for years, and the food&#39;s always spot on. My go-to is the lamb curry &ndash; it&#39;s got this deep, rich flavour that hits the spot every time. Could maybe be a touch spicier for my taste, but honestly, that&#39;s just me. It&#39;s the consistency that keeps me coming back.

Been coming here for years, and the consistency is what keeps me coming back. Ordered the pad thai again last night, and it was exactly as I remember&mdash;same generous portion, same rich flavour. That kind of reliability is hard to find.

Perfect spot for a pre-dinner drink, right by the Town Hall. We had a lovely glass of red on the terrace before heading off. The wine list was decent, a good selection by the glass. A bit pricey for the area, but you&#39;re paying for that central location.

Lovely spot for a light lunch. The space is bright and airy, especially by the big glass windows. I had a scone from their fresh bake selection - it was nice, though the seating felt a bit cramped when the place got busy.

The fish platter was generous and fresh, went perfectly with the viognier/grenache we ordered. The espresso was a bit weak for my taste, but that&#39;s a small thing. Really liked the buzz in the room.

Looks basic from the outside, but the food is seriously good. Got the chicken sandwich for a quick lunch, came out fast. Spotless inside too.

Been coming here for years, and the staff always remember my order.

Quick breakfast with friends, and the staff were really friendly. Food was tasty and the portions are generous, so we left happy!
