Fantastic bakery and restaurant. The service was good, the food was amazing and this would be a real find whatever location you found it. A true gem. Follow them on Facebook and pay attention to how to book a takeaway or a sit in.

Truth be told, I'm not a big fan of sourdough, having sampled too many iffy offerings from self-proclaimed artisan bakers. But the bere-barley sourdough loaf here is the best ancient grain loaf we have ever tasted. The croissants and pastries are also exceptional. The pizzas in the restaurant are some of the best I have tasted anywhere, including Italy. It's all in the dough.

There was an honestybox so we could just take some sourdough croissants and bread, very convenient! We loved the little shop, it was very cosy, pretty and neat. And the food was delicious!

Food was pretty good, pizza dough much better cook in person than the cook at home ones. Love the garlic bread (though would like more garlic on it). The restaurant itself is small and cosy. Looks very nice though some of the side areas could do with being cleaned more regularly but the direct food areas itself all good. Would go again.

Great pizza place, home made sourdough, great toppings and happy to cater for the gluten impaired ;-) The gelato was also excellent, service friendly and the room is cosy with a nice atmosphere. In high season a reservation might be good, we visited end of April as walk-in and were lucky to get a table.

We had Christmas specials... great woodfired pizza. Watching the dough being prepared, the pizzas assembled and then into the oven was a delight. Their gelato was so delicious too. Coffee great! Decaf from beans too - nice touch. Lovely decor, great music, good vibe. 5 star!
