Lovely spot by the river with a relaxed, welcoming feel. The setting really stands out, especially sitting outside and taking in the water views. Food was well prepared and served without a long wait, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout. A great place to unwind, catch up with friends, or enjoy a quiet meal by the water. Would happily return.
Absolutely beautiful food and fantastic service. Canโt recommend this place enough. Also highly recommend taking the Trust the Chief journey off the menu and then sit back and enjoy, you wonโt regret it! What an amazing dinning experience!! Thanks for making my birthday so special.
Last night on holidays and we had a fantastic night. Our waiter was amazing and the food was probably the best we had had while we were on holidays. My only disappointment was we booked ahead and asked to be on the deck no realizing that would mean we would sit at a bench/bar. I was hoping for something a bit more special with my husband. Still I would totally recommend. Next time I will request a proper table in my booking.
Food was exceptional, could not fault. Cocktailโs were great.Attention to detail on service needed a little improvement. When attendant was pouring cocktail at table, it overflowed, was not mopped up and more was to be added, was told by attendant to drink it down a little and add when able. Bread needed better cutlery to cut through of which we had to ask for. We were sharing dishes and cutlery was not always forthcoming to separate or share, so we improvised.
I recently came here for our work Christmas party, where they chose the Trust the Chef option, and all I can say is wow. Every dish was absolutely delicious. Even foods I normally wouldnโt eat, I tried, and loved, because the flavours were completely transformed by the magic way each dish was created. The flavours truly popped. We were lucky enough to have the chef come out and talk us through each dish, which made the experience even more special. Iโll definitely be back soon and already recommend this place to everyone. We sat outside on the deck and, although it was warm, the breeze made it really comfortable.
