"Affordable and a suitably sized portion.
Inside options yet able to partake in al fresco eating nestled in beautiful surroundings.
I enjoyed the best fish and chips I've had in ages. Really reasonable for the price.
(Almost polished off completely as this was so good and then it occurred to me that a photo might help compliment a favourable review.) Really lovely fish, like it was just pulled fresh from the waves!"

"Visited with my family.
We all had fish & chips. Fish was great, so was the chips. Indoor seating and served on plates, with knife & forks.
Good atmosphere 👌"
