Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often point to the marina setting, with views of the boats and the sailing club next door, paired with plain, quick breakfast and lunch food. Several describe it as simple community cafe fare in good portions, with chips larger than average, and one mentions scones with jam and cream alongside soup and a sandwich. Close behind is the friendly staff, and a few note locals chatting over breakfast. Dog owners appreciate that dogs are welcome, and one says there is enough room between tables for an assistance dog to lie comfortably. Others mention the cake and coffee, a short beer range on tap, and picnic tables outside for watching boats come in. The main criticism comes from one reviewer who found the burger disappointing, describing a plain bun with a bought-in chicken breast piece and calling it poor value. Another says the pastry looks dry, though the cake is very nice. One family describes the kids enjoying their meal, and diners watched a kayaker arrive from Ireland after raising money for charity.

“a friendly local cafe with no nonsense food. the food isn't the best you've ever eaten, it's inexpensive community cafe food, but its fairly quick, theyre good portions, and lots available on the menu to choose from. (a special mention to the portion sizes of chips, they are larger than average!) a great spot for people with food issues who find pretentious cafes inaccessible. it is dog friendly and well laid out. there is enough space around the tables for my assistance dog to be able to lie comfortably without being in the way. bonus points for the amazing view over the marina!”
