    Absolutely loved this place. We went for our anniversary, food was tasty and well presented, good choice of drinks especially as I don't drink alcohol. Also it is dog friendly which was brilliant. The dog was given his own water bowl! We will definitely be back.

    The quality of the food was superb, it’s rare that I comment about a meal, good or bad. but sometimes things are just so extraordinary they deserve a special mention. The scotch egg and pan fried sea bass were amazing, the wine fairly priced and overall the cost of the meal was unbelievable value. Service was excellent too and the ambiance friendly and convivial. Well done, full marks!

    We tried this place for my partners birthday and all I can say is amazing, amazing and again amazing! We have used many restaurants in which I’ve had the pork belly and some were just nice and some amazing in my opinion but this place was on another level! The food was worth every penny if not more and the staff were professional and made the evening a pleasure

    excellent neal, food delicious and overcompensated for error in main course. Have eaten there before, and food always good but thus was better! We did find that we had picked a quiet evening and this added to the experience as it is sometimes quite noisy.

    The prices have risen as they have everywhere. But, £19 for a burger! Was listed online as £17 this week. Another venue in town offers the Chicken Schnitzel with a sauce for £16 compared to TCY charging £22 and no sauce. They also have 2 of the cheapest cuts of meat on the menu sometimes which are 2 of the most expensive meals offered, brisket and pork belly. Having owned a butchers shop we know the cost of the meat, well overpriced in TCY. Food today was quite good but nothing that elicited a "wow". Service was very good however, the staff were helpful and cheerful, thanks for their service which we all appreciated.
