I rushed in for lunch after an extended Hospital appointment at C & W. I had a real yen for scrabbled eggs, avocado and toast, but due to delays at hospital the breakfast service was over. Not withstanding it was a busy lunch service - Eddie, the Chef of the day, Xhulian and the rest of the team - kindly sorted me out - the food was fantastic, the service and ambiance the same - top notch - much thanks!

Love the atmosphere. The service is efficient + friendly. As it’s busy season there are babies and happy chatting coming alone. Good to have breakfast and lunch there 🤗

Went for dinner on a Monday night and it was very quiet-great upbeat music helped the ambience. I had the 2 course menu for £21 and an Aperol Spritz. The set menu is a little limited but the fungi risotto and tiramisu were delicious and portions good size. Service was great-friendly efficient staff. Please be aware that they have a service charge-12.5% I believe, but worth it.
