Reviews of Willow

Booked a table for 5pm. Chose it as it was dog friendly and sold local produce from the specials board. Friendly staff. Polite and courteous. We all had different starters to try. The scallops from the starter menu were amazing. The rest were good too. Fish. Chicken tenders and wild mushrooms on toast Main course was perfect. Compliments to the chef's! Our only slight criticism was the sea food linguine was on the spicy side when the sauce said mild. And a small 250ml coke was £2.50. Apart from that will go again! Worth a visit. Appreciate they have to make money but the tables are set out too close for my liking. But with everything that is happening with covid and everyone being vaccinated the seating arrangement is ok for future visits. Worth a visit!

Lovely breakfast. They cater for vegan/ vegetarians too! :) Lovely almond milk latte and everyone was very friendly. It’s a little hidden away off the street but by the beach and big windows let the sun shine in while you eat. We only had breakie but it seemed to have nice meals and fresh sea food. Also, super dog friendly! So happy to discover this place.

What a great place for breakfast! Very friendly staff who accommodated out large party easily. Some great food although I have to lose a star due to my eggs being overcooked. Lovely coffee and a great atmosphere and best of all they allow dogs in. We wanted to come back and try their evening menu (the fish chowder looked great) but unfortunately they had a private party on the night we wanted to go. Well done guys. Great little restaurant you have there! Just do your eggs right and it'll be perfect! 👌

Fantastic place for a cuppa or to eat. I have eaten here many times the staff are friendly and accommodating. Today I took my Nordic Walking group in for breakfast. Some of them with different dietary requirements which wasn't an issue at all for Willow. Thank you so much for looking after all 14 of us we will be back again soon

Booked a table VERY last minute on a Saturday evening, happy to accomodate us despite extremely short notice. Food throughout was excellent, staff were very attentive and polite. Steaks were cooked impeccably, couldn't ask for any better. Must say that a fillet steak at £22 (was a good 10oz as well) with the trimmings is excellent value, especially when it's cooked as well as that and is sourced locally. When the bill came they'd actually missed off the fillet but we made sure that it was paid for, a very welcoming experience all round and would love to visit again sometime.

Update September 2017: We came again to try the Willow Special breakfast. It was definitely tasty, although smaller than an English breakfast. I found it filling enough, but my wife didn't. Basically if you're really hungry perhaps make a different choice. The coffee was okay,, but not great and milk was still an extra 20p, which gave us the impression they're a bit mean. Now we've tried the special we're unlikely to go back as for the money there's other places as good but better value. October 2016: set back a little from the beach access road, it has a pretty garden area in front with outdoor seating. The path is flat and the bistro is wheel chair accessible. The décor is modern and attractive. There are a good amount of tables for two, four or six people and not right on top of each other. There's also a pair of sofas. Toilet facilities are available, but are up a short flight of stairs. The nearest disabled toilet is over the road in the car park. The lady serving was very welcoming and took our order in a few minutes. Our hot drinks arrived a little before the food, which took about ten minutes. I had scrambled eggs and two sausages and my wife had the vegetarian breakfast. Food quality was very good; my sausages were proper Cumberland ones. The coffees were good, maybe a little on the small side and milk is 20p extra. The total was £16.85, which for the quality of food was about right. When we paid, the same lady was very friendly and engaging, so full marks to her. We have to go here again so we can try the bistro special poached eggs. Definitely a good place.
