"Really dog friendly with bowls and treats. Abbie was very welcoming even though we were 40 minutes early. Will likely revisit next time I am in the area. OMG the chocolate orange dome was lovely and I don't normally like desserts."
Marie Slaughter
"We visited today and really enjoyed the whole experience. The food was delicious, compliments to the chef and our server, Abigail was REALLY helpful and attentive. 10/10 all round for welcome, food, service, ambiance and value for money. Well done, Falcons Nest (and Abigail) you're getting it just right. See you all again soon 😊"
