Food was absolutely delicious, staff were welcoming and attentive. They did find it difficult to keep up with serving and clearing when it got busier but the atmosphere was great and we will definitely be back for more!

We had really nice Christmas lunch. Food was great, as were the staff. Also a good atmosphere, with music and everyone smiling and enjoying themselves. Hadn't been before, so will be good to go back when it's warmer and have a look around the marina at the same time.

We both had steak and a glass of red wine for supper. Both were delicious - the prime cut steak cooked to perfection and there is a thoughtfully chosen range of wines. Breakfast was equally good - a pleasing range of options. The staff are delightful and the service is second to none.
