A new place in town which appeared to have great reviews from my colleagues. When we visited there was a nice space inside but we decided to sit outside with the war weather. Great place for drink as they have a bar and there is a good choice of mocktails to choose from. The food is on the borderline as it can be good sometimes and sometimes it can leave you disappointed. Overall I would say the friendly staff and their efforts to try to make the best of your visit tips it over to being a place where I would still visit again and again.

Highly recommended Spanish tapas. It isn't cheap but they use quality ingredients. Friendly and helpful staff throughout. We had 6 tapas dishes and they were all great and better than some local places in Tenerife I visited. The paella was good but not the best I've had and could get better. Definitely worth a visit.

Clean, great decor, attentitive staff, tasty food and reasonable prices. What more can you ask for? Love the paella and the patatas bravas. Croquettes were great too but meatballs lacked a little flavour. Definitely will visit again!

Casual food and drinks in a square - you could almost believe that you are in Spain. Good tapas, not too expensive and a good size. The Gambas Chorizo was spicy and very good. Bacalao was fresh and crisp, although I would prefer a stronger garlicy alioli. Mixed meats we're generous and tasty. The takeaway can steam in the boxes, so isn't as crisp by the time it arrives, so better to eat in if you can.

We have been here many times and also had take away during lock down. We have always enjoyed the food and like to support a local business. Our food last night was delicious as always. We were the only ones in there (table booked for 6.30) and sat outside which was nice as it is a lot quieter than sitting on the pavement outside some of WGCs other restaurants. The outside area catches the later evening sun, so by 7.30 it was lovely, would be a good spot on hot summer evenings. A few more tables outside with maybe a few plants would really add to the ambiance

First visit here last night with my good lady and was stunning from beginning to end. The atmosphere was brilliant with a good fix of young and older generations. The staff were attentive and knowledgable on how many Tapas dishes to order and told us 'to add more' as we went along if we wanted to which we did, and were not disappointed with any of them. The cocktails were spot on. The best Mojito I have ever had was actually on holiday in Greece...this is until last night...It took me straight back to greece! I was also surprised at the bill...I hadn't added up anything as we went along and honestly expected £30.00 more than we spend so that was a nice surprise too. And at the end of the evening, as we left, we were 'thanked' for coming. I'm not one to normally write a review for anything, but this is well deserved. Highly recommended.

I couldn't fault the friendly and informative service, the bar and bartenders have a very clean working area couldn't fault the beer and the cocktails I would say the best around. I would recommend this family friendly restaurant to all my friends. Thanks for a great night 👍💃💃🎶🍾
