“ Had to try it as loads recommended and didn’t disappoint!! The pork crackling on the Sunday dinner was the best I’ve ever had! Dinner was gorgeous!!! Staff very friendly ”
“ Went for a family meal for my mam’s birthday. Service was fantastic from Laura and other staff. I know Paul from years ago and was great to see him and the restaurant again. Paul played a birthday song for my mam and put a sparkler in the ice cream which was very much appreciated. The food was fantastic. All of us enjoyed it including my two nephews. Brilliant night. Thank you ”
“ What a find this was. We came to the local area for a couple of nights and after a bit of tripadvising we decided on this Italian. We never booked as it was a last minute decision but it was not a problem. We were greeted by a very friendly waitress and were shown to a table straight away. The waitresses and the gentlemen (believe he was the manager/owner) who served us were very efficient and extremely friendly. Food was fantastic, really tasty and great portion sizes. It was nice to come somewhere where we felt we were getting our moneys worth! Strongly recommend the pizzas and the garlic bread! If we come back to the area we will mostly likely be returning. Thank you! ”
