The coffee was a bit on the pricier side, but the setting is lovely. We had a table by the window with a beautiful view, which made for a very relaxed afternoon. It&#39;s a nice, comfortable spot to unwind.

The full English was spot on, especially the black pudding. Tuna melt was decent, but they&#39;d run out of the sourdough bread I wanted. Solid grub when they have it.

Came for the fish and chips on a Friday. The batter had a nice hint of dill, and the chips were spot on. The portions were generous, which I appreciated. The space itself is really bright and airy, with big windows.

Staff were really friendly, helped me out when I didn&#39;t have cash on me. Quick and easy lunch spot, got my order sorted fast. Just what you need for a quick bite.

The curry was spot on, and the pizza had a nice crust. But the real standout for me was the space itself &ndash; high ceilings, lots of natural light, and those big comfy booths. Just a really pleasant place to sit for a while.

The real ales here are a proper treat. I&#39;m not usually an ale person, but I tried a couple and they were really smooth. The staff were lovely and explained the different options without being pushy. Nice spot for a relaxed drink.

Portions are a bit small, but the dishes are so creative and tasty. The seating was really comfortable, which made the meal relaxing.

Been coming here for years, and that fish platter is the reason. Always fresh, always generous. Perfect for a quick, satisfying meal with a mate. Never lets me down.

Tried their banquet night deal. Comes with a drink and ice cream. Decent spread for the price, though the mains were a bit on the small side. Good for a casual mid-week dinner.

Service was friendly and efficient, even on a busy Saturday. The place is small, so booking is a must. For the price, the portions were decent. I&#39;d say it&#39;s worth a detour if you&#39;re in the area.

Good spot for a casual dinner with colleagues. The menu clearly marks gluten-free options, which was helpful. Food was fresh and seasonal. Service was efficient, got us in and out in a reasonable time.

Came for a quiet drink. The beer selection is solid, but it was the lighting that got me&mdash;soft and golden, just enough to make the whole place feel cosy and a bit dreamy. Perfect for unwinding.

The scallops were spot on, and the beef ragu was a hearty main. What really made it for me was the wine list &ndash; found a lovely red that paired perfectly with the ragu. Views are a bonus. A bit on the pricey side, but worth it for the drink selection.

Stumbled upon this place in town centre. Portuguese home cooking, feels like someone&#39;s kitchen. The homemade chips are the star, crispy and salty. Rustic decor, a bit worn but it&#39;s part of the vibe.

The afternoon tea in the Cellar was lovely. Anna and her team were very attentive. I particularly appreciated the freshness of the ingredients, especially the cucumber sandwiches and the scones. Everything felt light and thoughtfully prepared.

Stumbled upon it driving by. The food was solid, good quality for the price. But what really stuck with me was the space itself &ndash; the high ceilings and those big windows let in so much light, felt really open and relaxed.

The Sunday roast is my go-to for catching up with friends. The portions are huge and you get a bit of everything. Great for sharing!

The pasty and gravy were tasty, but I really liked the clean, bright space. Feels like a proper independent spot.

The 40oz tomahawk was the star here - cooked just right. Staff were really friendly too.
