"We came form Germany by Ferry. Perfect stop for breakfast. Very tasty. Very friendly staff."
Tanja Rüterkamp
"The breakfast was expensive for little food. The eggs benedict was served on chiabatta roll not a toasted muffin as it should be. It cost £30 for two coffees and two small food items. No atmosphere. It was not the best. The waitress was friendly and helpful."
