My family of six had a lovely Christmas meal Boxing day 2021. The food was well cooked and presented. The setting on the headland is perfect right next to the lighthouse. All covid measures were met. Would visit again

Had Christmas Eve lunch here. It was fully open and busy, but with sensible Covid measures in place. We both had haddock in my case grilled with new potatoes and salad. My partner had it traditional fried in batter with chips and mushy peas. Both were excellent and good value. The staff were their usual helpful friendly self's. Once again a great experience.

We visited whilst being up visiting family. We arrived around 1pm on Saturday. We were quickly given a table for 5 of us. The restaurant was very busy - and unfortunately we had to split over 2 tables.
Ordering of food was done quite quickly - with only a short wait for the food to arrive. We'd all gone for the haddock and chips. The batter was a nice golden colour and nice n crispy. The portions were a good size. I had the mushy peas - which were very good. The chips were a bit on the crispy side for my liking- but that could have been due to the fact of how busy it was at the time of our

Very busy when we went but not surprisingly with what you get for the price. Always a pleasure coming here for food . Always hot and quality and never had a problem with anything in all the times I've come here and that's over 30 visits to be fair.

Popped in for a quick coffee and tea on Saturday. Delicious latte nice and hot struggled to refuse a piece of cake from the display that looked so fresh. Watched staff member Nathan thoroughly clean table, seats, menu and everything touched by previous customer it gave me confidence as to the cleanliness of the restaurant. Popped to the ladies where that was very clean also. Restaurant is easy for wheelchair disabled and has loads of parking pay and display. Lovely views. Will be back again as we are moving local soon.
