About this restaurant

Great for scenic views
Good for special occasions
Neighbourhood gem

This big open space with its easy, informal mood has an open kitchen where Bryn’s team of chefs turn simple, local, seasonal ingredients into extraordinary bistro-style food. Menus are served all day by interesting people who really understand food, and there are no rules, so you can do what you like: tuck into breakfast, graze over small plates at the bar, share a Sunday feast with family, watch the sun go down with friends. Good times with good people, and no distance between you and the beach.

We always love coming here but yesterday our waiter was not as friendly and cheerful as your usual staff We loved the food but our lamb (roast lamb) was tough and lacked much flavour.

Have been several times now … love the quality of food, the ambience and of course the view. Only not quite full marks due to a slight mistake on the order placed and a small service glitch but overall very good.

All round excellent as ever! Fish fingers were delicious. We even saw Bryn himself. Only suggestion is to change the Prosecco. Not particularly memorable.

Overall our experience was great and the breakfast was lovely. It was my wife Birthday and entering the restaurant my wife asked if she could have a table by the window. The front of house who was showing us to the table said that the table were reserved as they had booked before us which was fair enough. My irritation was we were there for a hour and a half and leaving the restaurant the tables had not been used 😕 My wife did however get a photo with Bryn Williams
