Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We came for an early meal here. The first warning sign was an empty restaurant other than ourselves on a Friday evening. But we were tired after a long journey and said we would stay. The waitress was very pleasant but that’s where the praise...ends. The food was of a very poor standard / at any price it would have been over priced but it truly was overpriced. We complained about the meal at the end but were still charged the full amount. Am always reluctant to leave poor reviews but this was such a bad experience that we feel obliged to do so. We had the same pasta dish - overcooked and dry. We got a side of chips - they were like chips that had been deep fried in old/well used oil. We won’t be returning.More

The decor is really nice but the food was not nice at all. Boyfriend order fish and chip and onion rings. For a place known for its seafood, the cod was not tasty at all. Chips and onion rings were from a pack. It’s terrible...to leave €85 and not have nice food and lovely drink. Mojito… don’t even know how to describe. It was the worst drink ever for €14!!!! Little bottle of Prosecco - warm! Never coming back. I wish you guys work on the food and delivery to the customers proper food instead of something ready from the markets.More

A horrendous meal. I got the pasta arrabiata which was a heated up dried tasteless pasta with a burnt garlic bread on the side (clearly heated up from a pre bought packet). I ate 3 spoons and couldn't bring myself to eat the rest. My...boyfriend got the chicken Florentine, the mash potato was watery and inedible. The chicken to be fair was edible but extremely tasteless. No vegetables on the side. Very disappointed and I left hungry. Our bill came to 56euro, a compete waste of money and time.More

Lovely quaint atmosphere and excellent service. Unfortunately, the main vegetarian option was unavailable because they had run out of ingredients on previous weekend. The only remaining option was a mediocre pasta dish. They had also run out of Guinness @

The food was not good. I had the curry and the chicken was so tough. My husband had the burger and the fat from the bacon on top was desperate and the chips were bought chips that had been over cooked. Chicken gougons were from...a packet too.More

Had an evening meal for two here. The restaurant was fairly quite, with only three tables occupied. Had a couple of beers, a starter and main course. The manager let us know that because all the food was prepared fresh that we would need to...wait, nevertheless, our starter arrived within 10 mins and the main course prompty after we had finished our starter. Food was good and tasty, and nicely presented. The waiter was down to earth and friendly, which we liked. Overall, very pleasant experience and good quality food. Would have no hesitation in recommending it.More

Visited Valentines evening and unfortunately very disappointing. We decided to go straight to mains and ordered a bottle of wine whilst we waited. First bottle of wine couldn’t be opened the cork was so dry so we had another bottle brought to us. My husband...had the burger but the chips didn’t arrive until over 20 minutes later and we had our mains finished….can’t understand how you send out a plate of food without its sides. I had the duck which was pink but no fat was rendered off so it was just chewy and the candied pears/mandarins dotted around the plate were just raw fruit. The mash was nice but that’s about it..we did eat it as we were never asked if everything was ok and we were starving but I don’t blame the servers as they had a lot to do between 2 of them. Overall a very poor experience.More
