Are you child friendly?

Yes! We have a baby change table in our bathroom. We do not have highchairs / special kids menus but all our dishes are ‘taster’ size.

Are you suitable for vegetarian/vegans?

Unfortunately due to the size of the kitchen, our menu is solely focussed on fish and seafood but we do have side orders and desserts and the chefs can make up a vegetarian salad to order.

Do you sell gift vouchers?

Yes we do. You can pop into the restaurant any time to purchase one.
