Wow. The food is fantastic. Had the fish and chips and it might have been the best I have had and having lived in London since that bar is pretty high. Very enjoyable evening in an unassuming location.

My Husband went here today while I was doing a home inspection in the area. When I was finished he brought me a Mediterranean salad with chicken. I am Celiac, so he asked the owner alot of questions and my Husband called me to suggest different things. I am always super leery when it comes to eating out, as alot of restaurants do not understand celiac and all that it entails, but my Husband assured me that this man was quite knowledgeable. So I ate it. No pain!!! Good start! Absolutely one of the best salads I have ever had!!! Fresh, delicious dressing. Chicken was cooked to perfection. I mostly hate eating out being Celiac but I will return here without a doubt. I only wish it were closer to where we live.

Definitely a good place to stop. We got the Mediterranean salad with added chicken and a roast beef pannini and they were delicious. Plus the owner was a pleasure to talk to.

this is a very cool place . We had great coffees , blueberry crumble and lemon bars all to go and very very good . The person that greeted us at the counter needs a higher rating than 5 stars , absolutely fantastic . We will be back to try the dine in options simply because this person made it irresistible .

I had the burger and fries while my cousin had the fish and chips. We both enjoyed our meal and the conversation with the staff. Their desserts look great and I will try some next visit.
