We came recently for a family breakfast. Firstly we had to wait ages outside to be served with many available tables. We arrived early as apparently this is a great place for gluten free options but there were no gluten free cakes available. The food was nice, if a little pricey for the children's breakfast muffins. Decor was loveky and a view of the boats. Unfortunately when we went to pay, we had to go downstairs to the till as nobody was around. Waiting at the counter to hear the owner shouting at his staff like they were worthless. We felt very sorry for them, swearing at them and shouting out "oh my God I'm gonna kill myself" in front of our young children. When we were served the owner huffs and puffs at us as we have a voucher to pay with. This isn't a free meal, someone has already paid you money for the voucher, which we added some of our own money too aswell. I am not normally one to comment but this was pretty shocking. A shame as the place was lovely and the waitresses seemed nice.

Was told they had a gluten free carrot cake. But when looked myself gluten free cake was on the same tray as wheat cake. When explained that now the gluten free carrot cake was not safe to eat as not kept separate. The staff was very rude. Do not eat there if you have an allergy. Not to be trusted.

Best gluten-free and dairy free breakfast ever! I had poached eggs on a bed of mashed avocado 🥑 and smoked salmon with maple seeds. It was tasty, and it wasn't dry. Great coconut 🥥 cappuccino ☕️ The staff were kind and professional. Good music, too. There's a big parking nearby.
