    Food was generally good. The calamari & meatball appetizers were excellent. Unfortunately we were sat in a room that was an extension to the restaurant which was not a problem in itself but it was so freezing we all had to wear our jackets! Also, on the way out 1 of the waitresses was in the way (my husband is in a wheelchair & the pathways in are just wide enough to fit). She would not move & so my husband landed up banging a little into a guests chair. She could have stepped aside for 1 second to let him pass!

    Wide choice on the menu and everyone in the party enjoyed their meal. Good service and nice to chat with one of the co-owners. We have been going to the Green Flash over the last 30 years and it keeps getting better.

    We dined at The Crow’s Nest to celebrate our anniversary. The atmosphere was wonderful. It was elegant but not stuffy. The view was amazing. The food was outstanding although not cheap. The service was great. I would definitely recommend for a special night!
