Wow, what a gorgeous cafe/restaurant!! Myself and Sally the dog had a great time. Thank you so much for accommodating Sally. And making her a special chicken pizza. She absolutely loved it. Thank you Chef Chris ❤️ I also had a dirty chai on oat which was soooo good. I definitely recommend.

Looking forward to heading back to both soon ❤️
