Have been going here so often, it’s so delicious and service is so friendly. I recommend everything on the photos. The chips are to die for they are so crispy and succulent!

We sat and then left, as we felt other customers where priority when ordering due to the status of race.

Decent breakfast options but mains menu is lacking. Ordered a lamb shish which came out as a skewer of lamb on a bed of grilled tortilla and a side of rice. No sauce provided so was very dry but the lamb was tasty. At £18.45 for the dish I would expect at least some tzatziki or otherwise to come with and could be more generous with the meat portion as it was only 4 chunks of lamb.More options available for the breakfast and brunch menus which the restaurant clearly does better at.Service was a bit disappointing. Waiter pointed us to our table and didn't bring out enough water for the table when asked and was absent otherwise.Coffee was also fine but felt like decaf.The atmosphere was good, seems to be popular with locals at lunchtime.Overall an ok experience, but considering the price of dishes I would expect larger portions or accompaniments for the mains. Either improve the mains options or cut from the menu and focus on breakfast and brunch.

These guy asked for feedback and took it happily... All brilliant besides the lamb which was tasty but a bit dry. Everything else was amazing. The service was calm with genuine smiles, positivity and emotional intelligence . I'm a complainer and 100% recommend these guys. The Turkish house wine is excellent VFM. Order Sea Bass, Strawberry Pie topped with Custard plus an Irish coffee and spend the night in heaven!

Great relaxed place to eat, amazing service. Good vibes - a nice mix of couples, families, friends. And great food. Courgette fritters were amazing!

My omelette was good but coffee could have been stronger. My main criticism is that this restaurant really can’t cater for gluten free. The waiter who served us was also cocky to my partner which isn’t acceptable.

Visiting Harpenden and found this place by chance. I have to admit that their Burger is amazing. It's one of the very rare super delicious burger you can find in UK. Lovely staff, calm and relax atmosphere. if I'm again in Harpenden, definitely will visit for that Burger

Lovely staff, very helpful young lady seating 7 of us Sunday morning just gone. Everyone's food looked great but too much sauce on my eggs Benedict for my liking. Would definitely go again to try other food

What an exceptionally good place to eat. The service was fantastic and the food sublime - I had the salmon with mashed potato and asparagus- so delicious

We had a very pleasant lunch . Service was excellent and the portions very generous . Started with brochetta for one and Greek salad . We then had the lamb . Again very tasty . The chips were outstanding . Reasonably priced and a pleasant glass of red wine
