Booked ahead and glad we did, it was packed! The staff were really friendly and found us a nice, quiet corner table. Made the whole evening feel relaxed and easy.

The fish and chips were really good. The sole was lightly battered and the skin-on fries were spot on. The homemade tartare sauce was a nice touch, really made it.

The ghee masala dosa was spot on, crispy and flavourful. Sambhar had that perfect, homely tang. Really hit the spot for a taste of home. Service was a bit slow, but the food made up for it.

Such a lovely, buzzy vibe here. Georgia, Alfie and Lexi on the floor were so friendly, they really make you feel at home. Felt like popping round to a mate&#39;s place for a bite.

Been coming here for years, and Mia&rsquo;s service is always spot on. She remembers my usual order and gets the timing just right, even when it&rsquo;s busy. That consistency keeps me coming back.

A nice spot for morning coffee or evening drinks. The outdoor seating is pleasant, though it got a bit busy later on.

A nice place to stop for tea after a long walk. The tea cake was lovely and the pot of tea was just right. The facilities were spotless, which is always appreciated. A very comfortable and relaxing visit.

A decent spot for takeaway fish and chips. The batter was a bit soft, maybe from the box, but the fish itself was fine. Came with lemon and tartare sauce, which was a nice touch. Staff were friendly.

Breakfast is a good deal. The fried bread was spot on, bacon cooked just right. Portions are decent for the price, which is rare these days. A solid choice if you&#39;re watching your spend.

The plum wine was such a nice surprise. It had this subtle sweetness that just went perfectly with the rich flavours of the food. Really made the evening.

Loved the fresh herbs in the beef shawarma, you could really taste the quality. The Arabic coffee was a perfect aromatic finish. Such a relaxing spot with all the plants.

The lamb balti was really good, with fresh, high-quality ingredients. Suman&#39;s service was attentive and helpful.

Found this great vegetarian spot by the river. The overnight peanut butter oats were a nice, creative twist for breakfast. The place itself is really bright and airy, with big windows overlooking the water. Just a relaxed spot to start the day.

Been coming here for years. The food is always piping hot and tasty, no matter when you go.

Loved how welcoming they were to our pup! Madeline was so sweet and even brought him a little treat.

Been coming here for years, and the steak is always spot on. Cooked exactly how I like it, every single time. That consistency is what keeps me coming back.

The mezze selection here is pretty good, not your usual cafe stuff. Two small plates each was just right for a light lunch. The hummus was decent, though the pita could have been a bit warmer.

A decent spot for Mexican food. The atmosphere is lively and fun, which I enjoyed. The tacos were pretty good, though the margarita was a bit too sweet for my taste.

The staff were so lovely and attentive. I had a question about the ingredients in the salad dressing, and they checked with the kitchen right away. Really appreciated how they handled it.

Been going here for years. The carbonara&#39;s always spot on, you can tell they put the effort in. Bolognese is solid too. It&#39;s the real deal.

First time trying the cauliflower steak here. It was actually really filling, and I liked that they had a few veggie options. The salad was nice too.

Quiz night was a good laugh, well organised. Bar staff were on it, never had to wait for a refill. The atmosphere was spot on for a Wednesday.

I&#39;m picky about pizza, and this one hit the spot. The dough had a nice soft chew, and they didn&#39;t skimp on the toppings. A solid step up from the usual chain places.

Came with a big group of 22. They handled it really well, service was still quick. All the food came out hot and exactly as ordered. No mix-ups, which is impressive for a table that size.

The fish here is so fresh it practically tastes of the sea. They call it &quot;tomorrow&#39;s fish today&quot; and you can tell. Simple cooking, just letting the quality shine through.

Been working my way through the menu here. The grilled octopus starter is a standout. Paired it with a crisp Albari&ntilde;o from their list, which cut through the richness perfectly. The vibe is cosy, just right for a relaxed dinner.

Loved the Arancini and Broccoli Fritto. The space itself is really nice, feels relaxed and the seating is comfortable.

The sharing roast for six was fantastic, especially the beef. Plenty of space for a big group, felt really comfortable.

Saxon was a great server. The bottomless brunch is a solid option for groups.

The sharing platter was huge, way more than two people could handle. The lamb chops were particularly good, really well seasoned. We ended up taking half of it home.
