Great for scenic views
Good for special occasions
Neighborhood gem

This big open space with its easy, informal mood has an open kitchen where Bryn’s team of chefs turn simple, local, seasonal ingredients into extraordinary bistro-style food. Menus are served all day by interesting people who really understand food, and there are no rules, so you can do what you like: tuck into breakfast, graze over small plates at the bar, share a Sunday feast with family, watch the sun go down with friends. Good times with good people, and no distance between you and the beach.

Went for Birthday Meal with wife and son . Previously booked. We felt welcomed and warmly expected. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxed. The service was good humoured, polite and informative. The food was splendid particularly recommending the crab claw linguini, the twice baked soufflé and crab rarebit. All in all a very pleasant dining experience.

Was disappointed that the fish pie didn't come with a side dish of vegetables, so had the crab linguini instead which was tasty but portion too small for main course. The dessert was good and service good. Prices too steep to come on a frequent basis.

We loved every minute of this meal experience: having visited about a year ago we had high expectations and I’d say that these were met, with beautifully presented courses and great flavour combinations. The staff were all really attentive and did their jobs perfectly. Plus the sea view was beautiful today and our table was very well placed to benefit from it!

The service and food were great, the setting was dramatic today with strong waves on the sea, but the area still had a positive vibe about it. Lovely breakfast setting for sure
