NezzDecember 25, 2015Have a fishy breakfast whilst looking out at the lake views! Beautiful smoked salmon servings here. The kippers was also fantastic - lightly fried and well filleted.Upvote2Downvote
Nick de JongeFebruary 27, 2017Friendly staff, quick service on a busy holiday weekend, tasty food and decent portions. There are a couple of tables in a nice setting across the road from the restaurant too.Upvote1Downvote- MorwensDecember 31, 2018There is a bigger variety of food for adults and children.
