Had a great family meal here (29th May). They are unashamedly a burger place and I love that. Gluten free burger for my coeliac daughter, well priced given the location and good choice of drinks. We'd booked in advance but got held up so I phoned and they rearranged the table for a few minutes later. The food was delicious. Definitely 'on the list to visit'.

Nice friendly service by Ruth and Liam. Only issue was I’m gluten free and the g/f fried was not working…

Visited here last week as I was in the area for business from the Montana, US. I was greeted by the hostess who was very warm and guided my clients and I to our table. The food: as a table of three we ordered the wachos, vegetarian burger and a gluten free fat hippo burger that hit the spot. As a bunch, we are a complete dietary nightmare and Ruth kindly guided us through the menu and led us to our choices. Highly recommend this joint, if you're in town make sure to swing by!
