Great Bistro, friendly and helpful staff, lovely and clean. Fantastic food and prices. Extremely busy the day we went and had a bit of a wait, but everything else made up for that.

Polite staff, very good food, and quick service. Easy to get to and plenty of parking.

Good food, reasonably priced. Great service and lovely staff. It was very busy when we went at 1.30pm so, like I did, it's better to book. Will be going back.

Hired out for a family event. Great food with plenty of choice and all home made, super friendly staff, who couldn't do enough for us, easy parking, though a slightly odd location! Strongly recommended.

As usual food and service excellent. Very busy but still all the staff were smiling and helpful. They told us there would be a bit of a wait for food but as we weren't in a rush it didn't really matter. I suggest if you are in hurry you book a table in advance.

Have now been on a few occasions - always delicious food, good value, lovely staff. Will definitely be going again
