The food here is amazing. If you want a great upscale meal experience, make sure to come to Copleys. My only suggestion is that you dress warmly if you come in the winter months because it gets chilly outside. You most definitely want to sit outside because it’s beautiful. Even think of bringing a light blanket to throw over your legs. The service is on point and you won’t be disappointed.

Staff were wonderful even on a busy holiday and food superb as always. The kitchen is sadly slow- even on non holidays - perhaps too small but nonetheless we will be back!
