I actually ate here more than once which in itself is unusual as like to try different places but I'm going to hand out top scores for this place. Food was lovely, staff were lovely. If I'm ever back in town, I'll head straight there

Nipped in for a quick lunch. Portions were very generous - the fish and chips were fresh and crispy and the tartar sauce was fab! The fish finger sandwich was also tasty.

Perfect for families with a great location near the paddling pool and beach. Very fast and friendly service and good range of food for the family. Even on a busy August bank holiday weekend the staff were friendly and professional and service was fast. They really know how to look after families and do a great job.

The food was lovely and great value for money. It’s right by a water area for kids. When one of our members was hungry they brought out a extra piece of toast. And quick delivery. Overall a great place to go.

What a fabulous experience we had here. My friend and I were cycling around the island and had planned to stop elsewhere but found ourselves here after a wrong turn. We were very warmly welcomed and offered some menus. We didn't go for coffee because it wasn't up to my friend's very high standard but a good barista doesn't come cheap so we were happy enough to opt for tea. We noticed a chocolate slice on display but no cakes or pastries so we chose to share a waffle with strawberries, which was delicious. Since we were sharing, they very kindly offered to put it on two plates, and it was delivered promptly and with cheer. We only go to the island once or twice per year but we would definitely go back here.

What a gem of a place! We went on a busy Sunday morning and received such a warm and friendly welcome and were found a table quickly despite the high numbers of customers. Food was outstanding - huge portions, best quality and so tasty. Great views and buzzy atmosphere. Would definitely recommend you visit here. We'll be back!!

I rarely post reviews unless somewhere is somehow outstanding. This was outstandingly good. We happened across it on a rainy Monday evening and boy, what a find. Arriving less than an hour before closing time there was no quibble about us wanting a meal which was quickly prepared and brought to our table obviously freshly cooked. The scampi and chips was tasty and not greasy. The Cajun chicken was not at all dry and not over dosed with chilli allowing the flavours of the spices to come through nicely. Portion size was generous, even with the kids meal our grandson had. The only fault really was with the piped music: the content was pleasant, and it was at a nice volume, but it sounded tinny - as if it was being played on a cheap 1970’s transistor radio. Overall, a very good experience.

The service was great and the food was fantastic and quickly served. I had a full English and it was awesome. I would highly recommend a visit here. If you like good coffee then they serve Lavazza here and it is good. I love how we were able to bring the dog in and she was made to feel welcome.
