"Had some shrimp and beers and watch the sun set, nice staff great place to end the day."

"we dropped in for coffee only as we were going on a nice walk along the foreshore. The best thing about this cafe is the extraordinary view. I suspect it is geared up for bus loads of tourist who arrive on the cruise boat. But for a drink with a lovely view it’s difficult to beat."
Ross Daniels
"The setting of the terrace is unbeatable, absolutely stunning. The food was fairly shocking. Kebabs so chewy and not actually grilled, the kids "Kentucky chicken" was mostly lacking CHICKEN. These were bits of the chicken you wouldn't normally bother battering and frying! One of the few places to get a beer."
