We were blown away by the service we received when we visited. Our daughter has coeliac disease and the staff were super helpful explaining what she could and couldn't eat. When her pizza was a little late coming out, we were given updates to say it was not far away. Everything tasted great and the restaurant filled up while we were there but this didn't mean a drop in the attention we received. We had originally planned to just get takeaway pizzas and eat on the beach but we're glad we chose to eat in instead. We will definitely be back.

Went in Sunday for breakie for the first time, wont be going back. Ordered a large coffee and was given a small coffee, and when I asked for a large the waitress was visibley pissed off with me and took her time to remake it. Ordered a gluten free (coeliac) eggs benedict with bacon, was given a eggs on Spinach on bread, and no bacon. Had no flavour, dry toast as it had no butter, half a bag of Spinach, hardly any hollindase sause and no seasoning. When we left to pay they tried to charged us for the wrong coffee too. Very disappointed as had heard good things about this please, will not be going back.

I had a gluten free & dairy free cup cake which was super tasty. They have plenty of gluten free options, but would have been great if they had a bit more cakes that are both gf & df.
