Living local to up north we’ve frequently visited them for pizza on the evenings. It almost goes without saying how good their pizza is; true Neapolitan pizza with fresh home made dough. What was surprising though was their day time offerings. The girl who made my flat white was clearly a well trained barista. The texture and temperature were perfect! The pistachio aragostine was the ideal pairing too.

Delicious food- highly recommend the hummus & the garlic & rosemary bread, I’m a huge fan of garlic bread & can honestly say it’s the best ever! Really tasty food & good portions (we had to bring some home) Lovely atmosphere & great service- friendly & prompt with the food freshly cooked practically in front of you!

We booked for 3 via online which was straightforward. We had to put down a non refundable deposit however it is a small seating area and if there were no shows it would be a big loss of revenue so l understand. The service was good , we ordered and the food came red hot and all freshly made. The taste of the food was amazing and a great small and friendly atmosphere. For info it's also totally dog friendly which is a bonus as our dog goes where we go . . . .

Called in for a bite to eat before school run and have had takeaway from here before. Great service from both of the staff and the food was fantastic. Marinara pizza is always a good choice with a really tasty tomato base. And the caprese sandwich was amazing. Give this place a visit.
