The pizza&#39;s always solid, but I really like the vibe here. It&#39;s got this relaxed, industrial feel with those big windows and comfy booths. Just a nice place to unwind with a slice and a beer.

The Gai Pad Kapaow was pretty good, a decent portion and full of flavour. It had a proper kick to it. A solid choice among the Asian places in town now. The spring rolls were fine, too.

The lunch special pizza was fresh and tasty. Good value for a quick bite in town, and the house red was a nice match.

The portions are huge, honestly. I was surprised how much food you get for the price. It&#39;s really good quality too. I ended up taking half of it home.

Been living nearby for years, finally tried it. The food&#39;s the real deal &ndash; you can taste the care in every dish. Had the steak, cooked just right. Service was spot on too. A bit on the pricier side, but you get what you pay for.

Portions are definitely generous here, which is nice. Found it a comfortable spot for a simple, no-fuss lunch. The service was friendly and prompt, which made the whole thing very easy. Good for when you just want something filling without any hassle.

Great spot for a birthday party! The staff brought out the cake with music, such a nice touch.

The service was spot on. Staff were friendly and attentive without hovering, which I really appreciated. Made the whole evening feel relaxed.

First time here with friends. The mocktails were a solid choice for those not drinking, and the food was good. But for the price, the portions felt a bit on the small side.

The staff here are really friendly and efficient, which made for a pleasant lunch. The atmosphere is quite relaxed. I had the fish and chips, which was pretty good - the batter was nice and crispy. It was a bit on the pricey side for what it was, but a decent meal overall.

The marina view is really something on a sunny day. Sat by the window for lunch and just kept looking out. Food was decent, but that backdrop made the whole thing.

Stayed a few nights. Rooms are spacious, bathrooms nice. The breakfast bacon was really good. Quick and easy stay, no fuss.

Lunch deal is solid. Duck main was tasty, caramelised apple dessert too. Service was quick, got me in and out in under 45 mins. Perfect for a quick bite. Space is nice and quiet.

Service was on point, really attentive without being overbearing. The waiter had good suggestions, and they kept an eye on things without interrupting. A nice, smooth dinner.

Great value with the meal deals. The staff were really helpful - one waiter noticed we were debating and suggested a thin base for a well-done pizza. Made a good call.

Portions are generous, food was still warm when it arrived. The house red they suggested paired surprisingly well with the lamb dish. A solid choice for a quiet night in.

A few veggie options were gone by our mid-evening booking, but the wine list had some interesting local reds that paired nicely with what we did order.

The goat cheese salad and bacon brie sandwich were a solid quick lunch. Fresh ingredients, no complaints. Good spot for a fast bite when you&rsquo;re in a rush. 👍

Been back a few times, always solid. Had the monkfish and prawn curry special last night &ndash; it was surprisingly light but still really flavourful. The live music downstairs gives the place a proper buzz.

The seafood chowder was the star for me. Really rich and full of flavour, probably one of the best I&#39;ve tried. The fish and chips were good too, a decent portion.

Loved the vegan options here! The portions are huge and everything had so much flavour. The staff were really welcoming too, which made it a perfect spot to catch up with friends.

Stopped by for a late lunch. Service was quick and they were upfront about a drink not being chilled yet, which I appreciated.

Decent veggie options here. The paneer tikka was solid, not too dry. Asked for extra spicy and they actually made it hot. Good for a casual meal.

The chef is so lovely, came out to chat about the specials. The lighting is a bit low for my taste, had to use my phone torch to read the menu properly! 😅 But honestly, the food is always spot-on.

The gluten-free options here are pretty good, nearly the whole menu. Our server was friendly and helpful, which made ordering straightforward. The food itself was decent, though a couple of dishes were a touch salty for my taste.

Sarah was lovely, really knew her beers and gave us some solid tips for the area. The place itself has a nice, relaxed vibe, perfect for a casual pint after a walk along the coast.

Tried the steak sandwich for the first time. It was really tasty, the meat was cooked just right. Good prices too. Service was fine, no complaints.

The lamb shoulder was so tender, and you could really taste the quality of the meat.

The acoustics here are spot on. It was packed when we visited, but the noise level was surprisingly comfortable. Could actually have a conversation without shouting. The staff were quick to clear tables, too.

Stumbled upon this place. The lamb dishes were fresh and generous with salad and bread. The atmosphere is what got me - properly cozy, like a warm hug. Just the right kind of relaxed spot.
