Our group of 11, which included two children and a high chair, had a reservation at the cafe. Despite the heavy rain and bustling atmosphere, we were seated exactly where we requested, near the water view. The service was prompt, even with the crowd, and the food and drinks were both delicious and generously portioned. The waitress went the extra mile by bringing out candles for my birthday celebration and kindly took a family photo for us. This is my favorite cafe on the coast; we have visited several times before, and it never disappoints.

Very nice meal, the on line ordering system failed in the bar failed, had to go and get the drink ourselves after waiting 30 minutes for them to arrive. The food was delicious and the staff very polite.

Crocodile bites were so good!! We also loved the games of corn-hole and quoits that were free to play. We did the gin tasting and were so impressed with the berry ink gin that we just had to buy a bottle. If we’re down in the Tweed Valley again, we’ll be back!
