I had a meal here yesterday with friends and was very impressed. The service was friendly, but what really stood out was the Vegan Burger! It was incredibly tasty, beautifully presented, and served in a generous portion. The restaurant itself has a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere, and I appreciated that we didn’t have to wait long for our food, which arrived nice and hot. I will definitely be returning!
