"we made it to new chapter last night after we heard great things about the restaurant. young we were happy that we, eating was amazing, I chose the Scotch egg starter, this bore no similarity with the super market picnic food, it was luscious with the egg still soft and surrounded by points of the inherited purée, fresh heaps and pea shoots, I was in the sky. it followed the pork press that I had many paintings this cut, but this was beautifully presented with a slowly boiled pork and baby beet, delicious. the personal was attentive and friendly, the other diners were a real baptism, which meant high deck that conversation was possible. all in all a winner, we will be back"

"This charming café has friendly and accommodating staff, with a fantastic range of food choices. It was an ideal spot to catch up with friends from Rome and the Netherlands.

The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with comfy owl cushions scattered around. While you might easily walk past it, it is definitely worth seeking out and stopping by. The café extends further back than expected, providing plenty of seating space."
