Lunch time booking for 3 at 12.30pm on a Wednesday. Friendly welcome, and smiley staff. Comfy table with a nice hubbub in the room. Pitta bread and dips to start, Houmus was excellent. Good Pepperoni Pizza, Crab Cannelloni was spot on and Sea Bass was really great. Definitely recommend, and will go back. 9/10.

This was our second recent visit to TOF and we would highly recommend it. On both occasions we had lunch and found the food to be excellent and well presented. The staff were also very welcoming and attentive. We hope to visit on a regular basis from now on.

I really liked the flatbread with roasted squash etc on the new menu. Very busy lunchtime due to it being Valentine's Day but lovely friendly service and ambience as always.

Excellent, friendly service with tasty food. Portion sizes if anything were too big! Dog friendly and good atmosphere. I enjoyed the Sunday roast but was too full to sample the dessert menu. House red was delicious.
