    Wonderful attentive staff. Decor is lovely. Our table looked out to the bay and staff members opened blinds once we sat down. The staff were so friendly. Lovely meal but made exceptional by great staff.

    Had a lovely afternoon tea for 3 people. Started with lovely cocktails. Birthday celebration. Nice pianist playing and nice atmosphere. Too much rich sweet selection and not enough savoury "sandwiches" (no sandwiches) there was 4 small savoury items - fillet tartar, trout samosa, goats cheese macaroon, etc... no sandwiches and savoury items were extremely small. Sweet treats were very rich but beautiful, ordered extra scones as cakes were too rich for guests, €10 charge, they were lovely and didn't mind paying. Service and staff were excellent and had a lovely afternoon. I wouldn't order afternoon tea again, I'd be inclined to just order: cocktails or prosecco, sandwiches, scones and tea. As there was a lot of sweet food wasted.
