This was our second visit on New year's day and we weren't disappointed. The food was excellent, great service and atmosphere.

The meal was over priced. I had mushroom tart which was a rock hard pastry case filled with mushrooms in garlic sauce......not a tart. The salmon was nice but the veges were awful. Desert was a pavlova which most definitely was not a pavlova. The staff were lovely but food poor and overpriced.

The "seasoned chips" were seasoned with air
Response from the owner 9 hours ago
add salt or is that too much to ask *
The fact that you listed your chips as seasoned but weren't. False advertising is all I'm saying! Label your food properly and there wouldn't have been an issue

Great restaurant with friendly staff. We had lunch there and the meat was a bit crisp for our liking, but the rest of the sandwiches and the side coleslaw was delicious.

We popped in while in Berwick for lunch. The food was good with good portion sizes, but could perhaps have been a little hotter. Really good size fish and chips. Only one star dropped as it's just missing a bit of atmosphere. Perhaps it is because it was lunchtime. Would definitely give it another try though.

Came back with 2nd night. Such a comfortable friendly place. Food was delicious and I may never be able to have sticky toffee pudding again without being disappointed.

Went here on spur of the moment when planned lunch venue unexpectedly closed. Staff member receiving customers accommodated party of 6 + 1 dog very well. Good choices were delicious with 2 of our party who had salmon dishes saying how great they tasted. 1 person had soup and 3 others had the vegan burger which was delicious. Definitely recommend
