Popped in for a coffee in the old town. Sat outside for a while just watching people pass by. Really chill spot, just what I needed. The coffee was decent, nothing fancy.

Just popped in for lunch. The portions are huge, definitely got my money&#39;s worth. It&#39;s a family-run spot, been here for years. Food&#39;s always good and simple.

The Sunday roast beef was so tender, and the roast potatoes had that perfect crisp. Portions are generous for the price.

Looks a bit rough from the outside, but it&#39;s a proper cosy pub inside. The space feels warm and lived-in, not at all what you&#39;d expect. Had the chicken momos and a thali, both were solid.

Been coming here for years, it&#39;s our local spot. Always clean, good vibe. Angie and the team are friendly, they remember your usual order. Coffee&#39;s decent, nothing fancy.

Great coffee spot for a quick bite. Pastries are top-notch and the staff is always cheerful.

Been coming here for years, food&rsquo;s always solid. Service is quick and they never mess up the order. Just a reliable spot when you want a decent meal without any fuss.

Really enjoyed the full English here. It&#39;s a proper portion, everything came out hot and cooked just right. The garden out back looked lovely, even though we sat inside.

Popped in for a quick bite, ended up staying for a drink. The house red was surprisingly decent for the price, went well with the takeaway burger I ordered. Solid spot.

The coffee&#39;s really good, strong but not bitter. The baristas were so kind when my little one spilled his drink, just quietly cleaned it up and even offered a refill. Nice, calm spot to sit for a bit.

The almond croissant was spot on. They had a nice selection of wines by the glass that paired well with the savoury pastries.

Stopped in after a stroll along the harbour. Sat upstairs and the view was really nice. Just had a coffee and a slice of cake, but it hit the spot. Good place for a quick break.

A solid spot for a classic burger and chips. It&#39;s right on the high street, which is handy. The place feels really clean and spacious inside, a nice change from some cramped spots. The burger was exactly what I wanted &ndash; no fuss, just reliable.

Been coming here for years, the shawarma&#39;s always fresh and packed with flavour. Had the vegetable tajine this time too, spot on. They still do the little lokum with the bill, a nice touch.

Nice family-run spot. The owners are clearly passionate and really make an effort to make you feel welcome. It&rsquo;s a comfortable place to eat. The pasta was pretty good, though the portion was a touch smaller than expected.

The beef rendang here is something else. Slow-cooked for hours, the meat just falls apart. The spices are deep and complex, not just heat. It&#39;s rich, almost like a curry but drier. A proper, hearty dish. Could eat this every week.

Coffee comes in these Huskee cups, made from coffee husks. Nice touch, feels good to hold. The rest is pretty standard for the area.

Been coming here for years, a proper family-run chippy. You can taste the experience in the fish and chips. The batter is always light and crispy, just how it should be. A real classic.

The back garden is a nice spot. Sat there for a coffee and a slice of their lemon drizzle cake. The cake was good, moist with a sharp icing that wasn&#39;t too sweet. A bit pricey for the slice size though.

The portion for the main course was a bit smaller than expected for the price. Still, the food itself was tasty. Just left feeling like I could have eaten a bit more.

The chicken shish was good, but the salad really stood out for its crisp, fresh ingredients. A nice, healthy option.

Cosy spot with lovely vintage decor. The cakes were deliciously moist, but what really stood out was their tea selection - perfectly brewed and paired so well with my slice. Staff were sweet, lighting just right for a relaxed chat. A proper little escape.

Solid Sunday roast at the village pub. Beef was spot on, proper Yorkshire puddings too. Nice pint to go with it. Staff were sound.

The fish and chips were lovely and classic, and I have to say the mushy peas were the best part. The staff were really nice and attentive, which made for a relaxed lunch. My only small note is that the wooden chairs got a bit uncomfortable after a while.
