"A beautiful, cosy and welcoming cafe. Perfect for sitting in the sun having a beer outside or having a warm drink in charming surroundings in the rain. The staff are always enthusiastic and helpful so you can expect real service with a smile. Definitely 5 stars !!"

Excellent beer, food and service! I never get tired of going to this place. The Atmosphere is brilliant and the staff is very friendly.
