We popped in here last Sunday and were honestly blown away. It was such a pleasant surprise! I had the schnitzel, which was cooked to perfection, and followed it up with the cheesecake for dessert—both were 10/10. If you’re ever around Bray, you definitely need to stop by. A well-deserved five stars

Tasty foodDesserts & cakesAtmosphere
Lovely atmosphere and delicious food at a good price and great location. The menu has vast variety of different options, from simple & classic to asian influenced. Kids menu is also rich and portions are great. Personally I was blown away by the beef guiness stew. Meat was soft, almost melted in my mouth. Really really tasty and the puff pastry was a cherry on top. Staff were great too.

Such a cosy atmosphere, genuinely warm service, and most importantly, really delicious food. Everything feels simple but made with care — definitely a place you want to come back to. Highly recommend!
