A fun new place on Main Street! Like the concept … chairs at the bar, a few high tables along the side and regular tables by the windows. Comfy. The right lighting and sound level. The right place for popping out for a meal. Lovely food …. I had the Peking duck which was lovely. Great service. Worth a visit.
