We had fishcakes and prawns in garlic sauce for starters. Main we had lobster with pasta and fish of the day which was salmon. Finished with apple tartan and a tiramisu. For the kids menu calamari with chips and a ice ream Sunday. All delicious food. Service was very polite and helpful, although it was busy and a bit slow. Was pricey but worth a treat.

Good portion and the fish was not greasy and tasty. The sausage was also good. A bit pricy but definitely a good fish and chip shop to get something at.

Very nice restaurant. Went for the reviews and wasn't disappointed. We had lunch during the week and got to enjoy the lunch menu (2 courses for £23!) Don't be tricked by the "wee fish dinner" (see photo) it was big enough!! Had mussels as a starters and once again much bigger than assumed and delicious! Definitely recommend
