Best fisherman's plate I have had, perfect in everyway, 3 battered prawns, 2 battered whiting, 4 Coated calamari rings and chips to die for with a yummy Tartare sauce and lemon wedge...I even went halves with hubby as we weren't that hungry, and I was still full 5 hrs later it was so filling... We did have a half hour wait 1.25 to 1.55, busy) was well worth it, bright clean and roomy, friendly helpful staff...Had seperate female, male toilets which was great, lovely clean and roomy with female having a baby change table.... The place is for sale so can only they sell the chef with it, as I intend going back....

The wife and poped in on a spur of the moment "lunch date" today. Being shift workers there are times when we just don't see each other. Anyway I had their Stake Sandwitch. The beef was tender as and the salad tasted like it was straight from the garden. The realish was top notch. One of the best steak sanga's I have ever had. Just loved the old records on the walls. We will be back. Thank you.

Stopped for a coffee and a muffin. Friendly staff, delightful area to sit and enjoy your order. The coffee was perfect temperature and a great taste! The muffin was fresh, tasty and presented beautifully. Definitely worth dropping in for a break!

When we got our food, it was more than enough and we were all left full and content. The food isnt expensive and they have generous portions that we couldn't even finish. This is a great place to stop for any meal.

Amazing experience, pretty good Mmmwah burger, fantastic servings of chips (hot, crispy, and that perfect mix of salty) Eggs Benedict, looked amazing with poached eggs and bacon.
