We’ve been here before with our friends and were really excited to come back and show family members who’ve not experienced this restaurant before. My wife, my son and I had to leave and go to Casavostra Italian just down the road as they don’t accommodate babies or toddlers. There is no high chairs for kids. We’ve got an active two year old and trying to keep him sitting on our knee the entire way through the meal was never going to happen so we had to leave unfortunately. Not family friendly unfortunately.

One of our favourite places to go when we are at Quinta. It’s also open on Monday when many restaurants here are closed. Do not be fooled by the very basic entrance! Behind the doors is a gem of a restaurant 😉 Trying to get a table in the lovely little garden is a bit of a lottery but the inside is really nice too. The tapas is always really good and last night I had an amazing strawberry mille feuille which was to die for! Staff are friendly and helpful and know their stuff. Definitely recommend

Brava was recommended to us and the food certainly did not disappoint! Excellent Tapas and great cocktails. The location, next to the road, is unfortunate and you will hear the constant traffic from the garden, but the food quality makes up for the traffic noise. Service was friendly and efficient. Booking is needed and your table is allocated for 2 hours. We will definitely return

The welcome from the start , the warmth of the staff together with their assertiveness, the kitchen confidence and ability to deliver such quality . Stand out dish… soft shell crab and and shrimp on toasted brioche. We’d be back every day for this. Cinque Stella ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
