I had the privilege of eating there once and the food, service and ambiance were A+. I liked it so much that I tried returning twice, but although Google said it was open, both times they were closed. There was a polite notice with the opening dates, the first time due to a family holiday and the second due to a family bereavement. I fully appreciate this is a family business and that makes it all the more attractive for that reason. I would just suggest not getting your hopes too high as they close often as a result, and seem not to have backup options, which is fair being a family-run place. If I could advise the owners, I’d just suggest advertising this on your Google page so others like me don’t make plans to meet people there only to find it closed. I am also sorry for your family bereavement (for those viewing this comment, they’re now closed until the 27th of May) and hope to return and have a delicious breakfast, but I’ll also know to have backup plans. 4 starts due to this but otherwise deserves a 5 star.
