"I've eaten here before today and I knew from this experience that the portion of food on the all day breakfast is vast. I'm not sure why there is not the option of a small breakfast when there is a regular and a large. The regular has two of each item and I understand that the large breakfast is three of each item. Would a small breakfast of one of each item not be an option? I'm raising this as today I saw huge amounts of food being left on peoples plates and being dumped. While the owners don't seem to mind this because the customer has paid for the food, surely now we are much more aware of waste and the environment would the small option not be viable for the customer? I also observed the issue of not having a machine for card payments and only taking cash. There are two small signs informing the customer of this. One is stuck to the far right of the ice cream counter and directly behind a seat in which a customer was sitting, obscuring visibility and the other very small sign is on the right of the entrance door. Today an overseas visitor to our city ordered a varied and profitable amount of food and drink at the counter. His companions were sitting outside. Once his order was placed he attempted to pay with his card and was then told that it was cash only. The gentleman went back to his companions outside and I could tell by the confused looks on everyone's face that this was not something they wanted to do. The gentleman then came back to the counter and cancelled the order. Why are the staff not informing customers when they are presented with the menu of this very odd and outdated practice before the customer orders their food. So many customers had to go and find a bank to get cash clearly unaware of this practice until attempting to pay their bill. The food tastes lovely and we had a really nice girl serve us but signage must be larger and more visible re cash only."

"We were staying near Inverness on the banks of Loch Ness and looking for somewhere nearby for food. Inverness itself didn't seem to have much on offer having already checked Happy Cow. Our B&B hosts recommended this place as having some good veggie options. It's a quirky but old fashioned type restaurant with a gift shop attached as such much of the decor is comprised of things you can buy there, such as millions of mugs hanging from the ceiling and prints and paintings on the walls. the lighting is also very bright. The owner, Guy, seems quite eccentric and has a somewhat odd sense of humour however he was generally friendly and helpful. We were very pleased to find that the menu which was mostly non-vegetarian, had a front page which detailed where they sourced all their meat and other produce all local. The best bit of course was that they had some vegan and vegetarian options, which were very clearly labelled. The menu also stated clearly to mention if you were vegan so that the accompanying vegetables could be prepared without butter. The owners clearly understood about vegan and vegetarian diets! When we visited there were 4 vegetarian options on the menu and 3 of them were already vegan or could be made vegan easily such choice in the north of Scotland is hard to find! The restaurant is not licensed but you can bring your own and no corkage is charged. Also, you really need to drive to this place to make sure you have at least one designated driver. All in all we had a lovely time there and would definitely go back if we were in the area The food was good there were two veggie starters one of them vegan and both mushroom based, so we tried both of them and they were very tasty!"

"Love this place. I were here 5 times and i completely love come here. It is a small restaurant, with not big tables and chairs with dim lighting. On every table stay fresh flowers. At the evening plus nice candle. Play eastern nice music. Attention! If you want come here, you need book table. All tables can be occupied. Were here tuesday evening, here were very noisy. So if you need more quiet and nice atmosphere, come here in a day. I managed to try several dishes and liked them all. All were vegetarian. I ordered: Halloumi casserole, halloumi and vegetable shish, babaganoush, aubergine shakshuka, camomile tea. All starters like babaganoush and aubergine shakshuka served with warm pitta bread. I choose from menu berry tea, but it is no more available so i have got camomile tea. Halloumi casserole served with fresh salad and couscous. Halloumi casserole a lit bit spicy but very tasty. Salad served with fresh piece of lemon. For me in salad too much vinegar. Couscous served with tasty herbs. If you order just drink and main dish, it is served without pitta bread. Bread you need order extra. Halloumi and vegetable shish served with bulgur pilav and fresh salad. Halloumi cheese were some burned, so it is a mines 1 star. Babaganoush and aubergine shakshuka were awesome. Very very tasty. Nice staff, delicious food and an overall pleasant atmosphere make this place one of the gems in this city. Thank you very much for this nice experience."
