Hit the spot

It’s a small place with a tapas style menu majoring on fish. Staff friendly food nice and reasonably priced. Not the sort of place you’d spend a couple of hours over a dinner date but for what we wanted it was fine.

GREAT “fish ‘n chips”!

Best fish (of a “fish ‘n chips” meal we’ve EVER had— the fish (hake) and the breading. WOW! The seafood chowder is also wonderful, as is the service.

Terrible service

We were sat rather quickly with water brought immediately but it went downhill from there. The server came around to take our order but we weren’t quite ready to order our main meals, but we ordered a platter of bread and olives. At about 20...minutes after, I decided to leave the group to take advantage of the sunny weather that was soon to leave, leaving two others at the table. It took 30 minutes for anyone to come back with the bread, and they basically threw it on the table and immediately walked away without asking to take the full order. There was another table who had sat and ordered their whole meal at the same time as us, and by the time our party left, the other table hadn’t received any of their food either. The rest of the party left before ordering any more food because it would not have been worth the wait.More
