"08/06/2021: Not heard of this place or read any reviews, but called in for lunch because Keswick was heaving and they happened to have a spare table. Very impressed with the original menu. Recommend the grilled halloumi with slow-roasted tomatoes, poached eggs, smashed avocado, hummus, cob bread, dukkah and hot sauce."

"05/06/2021: Overall the adherence to Covid regulations was the best we’ve experienced anywhere - sanitiser & antibacterial wipes everywhere (e.g. could wipe down toilet seat before & after use). Only gave a 4 because daughter had to change baby on a seat on the stairway & staff were unpacking boxes whilst we were there. Staff were lovely & attentive - wishing me a happy birthday & making a fuss of baby."
