"Yammin-Yummy says. ... 5 stars ... also a rarely awarded- 'beezybonus'. . . now, where do I begin to begin with such an amazingly appealing selection of freshly prepared foods that one would naturally expect that, already cooked, sitting, waiting for the next hungry expected customers. this can sometimes cook up to 10-20-50mins before they are placed in front of them. not here. freshly cooked. now this beautiful example of a traditional 'fish chip love affair, established over generations of Friday nights, was beautifully designed to tell their mouth, tonge taste panties, please attach their belts, and then it is about them an incredible arbor ride. ... one who seems to go up just as once they decided what's going in their mouth first (at least the crispy tail end) begins their incredible journey up; as their eyebrows increase during thinking, omg that 's sooo different good, light, crispy teig as I've never tasted in my 37 years since the beginning in the food industry. And then I made the mistake of dipping my squid in the homemade tartaric acid sauce. that is when the 1st massive fear happened, as I thought, oh my days; the better then mean, re-entry, deeper, actually cure my wrist action, to ensure maximum absorption of this sweet/creamy/tart/caper filled taste, as I reached for a chip to accompany, strengthen the excellent experience I thought stupid would be a 'standard thing'. Now I took care of you like this, but I have seen on my chips a few each mouthful was an experience, depending on how I stacked the fork, hahahaha. the fish was so fresh that I was looking on my teller sand. ... to dedicate a joy to each chip. ... the muddy heaps, normally warmed, not microshaft to a mass-hotter-then-the-sun, went a tasty bite, and quickly also, for once. the lemon shattered haddock had to be tied to the plate, because this teig was so light that it almost raised to the deck. but as soon as this handmade tasty tartaric acid sauce meets, any responsible 'handler-of-the-fork', wants to make sure that its only trajectory can be swallowed in their waiting swallow. It was so good, I couldn't stand to leave a single diesel and with this tartaric acid sauce, which even made a bulky chip, was nothing left, I was ashamed to ask the cook the recipe for 'this sauce', as he made such a light oil-free beautiful teig. the staff is very attentive, courteous, with a beautiful large sitting area also. get yourself here quickly bungalows to make an ordinary experience, in an excellent exciting eating expedition into a court that we all know so well, but so different. ... enjoy."

"The food was amazing! I’ve known about this restaurant for a while but only just decided to go last minute and boy was it the best last minute decision I made. First of all the staff are amazing. Abigail our waitress was really friendly and knew the menu well but also was able to relay feedback from other customers about particular dishes which I thought was a nice touch. The chef at the main cooking station was also very friendly and knowledgeable. A man who I believe was the owner was really friendly and you can see that he looks after his staff as the same attitude and friendliness filters down through to the rest of the team. Now time for the food! The food was absolutely sensational! We tried a few different dishes I’d recommend the halloumi which was just insane it had a nice sauce and was cooked in a way that I’ve never experienced! The beef kofte just bursted with flavour I was expecting flavour but not to this level, I literally had a euphoric moment when my eyes rolled to the back of my head! There was also a lamb dish which was amazing it had a really nice purée and was cooked to perfection . Oh and the olives, easily the best olives I’ve had. I’ll l 100% come back again and try more dishes!!!!"

"This place came highly recommended, now I know why. We got a lovely friendly welcome, offered a coffee straight away. The staff are helpful and attentive, with the chef checking on our meal to make sure we were happy. A nice menu with a good...range of options to choose from. I had the pancakes with honey, fruit and yoghurt. Plenty to eat, looked and tasty lovely. The hubby had poached eggs on toast with bacon and beans, which he said was very good, when he didn’t have his head down, tucking in. Out of town, so very easy to park. All round, great place."

"The staff are so attentive and friendly. The service is so quick and for the price I think the experience is so good! The cocktails are so refreshing n yum!! We had a cheeseburger while my boyfriend had the truffle burger which we all thought was one of the best burgers we’ve eaten! The best thing on the menu was definitely the fried chicken, which is breaded in rice crispies, 10/10! We also had the loaded tater tots which were insane. Definitely one we’ll always keep going to, just wish the burger nights were all week!!"

"It is beautiful in here: the bright orange napkins and the tangerine tablecloths; the light passing through electric dark blue glass on the ceiling. The warmth of light from orange and yellow glass flowered light fittings and the dull bronze of lanterns with lace-like cutout patterns. The shine of plates on the wall that are decorated with intricate patterns or desert scenes. The brightness of the sun coming down from skylights. The warmth and sheen of brown wood and the gentle drape of red tassled curtains with gold detailing. The sweetness of single tulips on each table. The chatter of diners and clink of cutlery against crockery. The heat of the tagine radiating towards your skin as it is placed before you. The delicious smell you can't help but lean over the plate to inhale for a good couple of minutes. The warmth of the smile of the man who brought the food and attended to me. The coolness of the air let in by the door that keeps it feeling fresh. The weight in your belly of good food and the knowledge that it will be a joy to return again, alone or with company. Thank you for a wonderful lunch"
