This place is amazing. The food is so DELICIOUS, and the picture of the empty plate is the evidence that it was all eaten. I loved the food, and the portion was so generous. We went in, and all the tables were seated, but the kind owner invited us to eat at the bar section. He refused to let us go away hungry. The lovely waitress brought water immediately and she was so kind and friendly. Lovely lady. We had a lovely chat with the owner, who was so friendly and welcoming. The food came in a good time. The chicken dish was amazing, and it came with three sides (salad, chips, and coleslaw). We had lovely zero alcohol beer and Coke. My sister ordered Caesar salad, and it was so nice and fresh. The prices were very reasonable and the food quality was really high. The place is so clean. I highly recommend this place. After we had our food, we enjoyed a lovely walk by the sea.

Food was quite good (my only note was that there were very few mushrooms in the chicken and mushroom vol au vents). The chowder was fantastic. There’s not a ton of sitting though, so be prepared to wait 20-30 min during busy hours. The servers were great and helped speed along the process as we waited for a table to open up.

Very good food. Large portions. The owner is very nice. Lots of British and Irish customers. Lucky find through Google. We had a drink, burger and fish&chips. Prices are higher than on the beach, but with nice side dishes. Be aware that the Vinegar packages havd the same colour as the tomatoe dressing.
