Food&#39;s still tasty, but the service charge on takeaway orders now feels a bit much. Their house red remains a solid choice though.

The outside is quite plain, but the food is genuinely good. I really appreciated how fresh the vegetables were in the stir-fry. The greens tasted crisp and vibrant. It felt like a healthy, satisfying meal.

Pork belly was the move. Crispy skin, tender inside. Flavour was spot on. Everything came out hot, which is a plus. Solid spot.

The full English was spot on. They were happy to swap out the beans for us, which made it easy to share with my mate who&#39;s picky.

Just popped in for lunch. The Buddha bowl was packed with flavour, really fresh. Plenty of options for veggies and vegans too. Solid spot for a healthy bite.

The coffee is really good, I ended up buying a bag of their beans for home. The barista was lovely and took the time to explain the different roasts. It&#39;s a nice, calm spot to sit for a while.

Stumbled in late after a beach walk. The pizza crust was thin and crisp, with a good char on the edges. Chips were properly golden and salty. Exactly what we needed.

The flat white here is the real deal. Proper microfoam, a rich espresso base that&#39;s not burnt, and just the right temperature. I&#39;ve had it three times now, always consistent. The cup is a bit small for the price, but the quality makes up for it.

Clean spot with a 5-star hygiene rating. A proper greasy spoon, no frills, just honest food done well.

Service was quick and the staff were really nice. They didn&#39;t mind splitting our chips onto two plates, which was a small thing but appreciated. Food was decent, nothing mind-blowing, but it hit the spot.

The staff here are so lovely, really made us feel welcome. They remembered my friend&#39;s name from last time! It&#39;s that kind of friendly spot where you instantly feel at ease. Perfect for a casual catch-up.

The burger was pretty good, and they brought my grandson a little cake for his birthday, which was a nice touch. The place was a bit loud for a quiet chat, but he loved it.

Such a cute little spot! The staff were so lovely and made us feel right at home. It&#39;s the perfect place to catch up with friends over coffee.

Love that they let you mix ribs and calamari with a salad.

The meat quality here is really good, especially for the price. The bread is super fresh too &ndash; I grabbed a croissant from the counter on the way out and it was still warm. A solid spot for a quick, tasty bite.

The crab baguette was the standout. Fresh, sweet crab meat, not too much mayo. The baguette had a proper crunch. Could&#39;ve used a bit more seasoning, but the flavour was clean. Price felt right for what you got. That&#39;s what I come for.

The lamb biryani is the thing here. The rice had that perfect, separate grain texture, and the meat was fall-apart tender with just the right spice. Honestly, I&#39;d go back just for that one dish.

Stayed a few nights. The breakfast really stood out for me. The eggs Florentine were lovely, and I appreciated the variety of fresh ingredients available. The eggs tasted so fresh, and there were plenty of healthy options to choose from.

We keep coming back for the lamb shawarma wrap. The meat is always so tender, and that garlic sauce is just right. It&#39;s our go-to spot for a quick, satisfying bite.

The chicken tikka masala was so good! You can pick your spice level, which is great when you&#39;re with friends who can&#39;t handle heat. We shared a few naan breads to go with it. Just the right spot for a casual catch-up.

Staff are friendly and quick to adjust spice levels. Makes ordering easy. Got my usual lunch in under 10 minutes, which is perfect for a quick bite.

Been going here for years. Staff are always friendly, treat you like a regular. They even brought a bowl of water for my dog last time, which was a nice touch. 👍

The chicken kebab was fine, but the chips really stood out. Perfectly crisp, not greasy at all. The salad was fresh and that little pot of mayo on the side was a nice touch. Simple things done well.

Cosy spot, clean and comfortable. Had a quick lunch inside, the portion was decent for the price. Couldn&#39;t finish it all. Good for a casual bite.

The chocolate milkshake here is the real deal. Thick, properly cold, and the flavour is spot on. Just a classic, done right. The spot by the water is a nice bonus, but honestly, I&#39;d come back for that shake alone.

Always a lovely welcome from the team here. The fish and chips are my go-to &ndash; the batter is super light and crispy, and the chips are proper chunky. Just a solid, reliable spot.
