Like we say - Let our family take care of your family Wedding Desserts CARAMEL SHORTCAKE AND ICECREAM CHOCOLATE FUDGE CAKE AND ICE CREAM FRESH FRUIT SALAD For a small restaurant the seating was adequate to seat and cater for the full wedding party. The atmosphere was inviting and staff were friendly and welcoming. The food itself was extremely delicious with ample servings per portion. There is a small outside seating area for those, few and far between, sunny days. This family run restaurant is definitely a good place to go and the family themselves will go out their way to help you and even have a chat to keep things real. We loved our time there and will definitely return again. Donald B via TripAdvisor I am a regular customer of the Bistro Restaurant and I can t praise everything about it enough. It was my 50th birthday party at the weekend and I had booked The Bistro to cater my buffet for the party, it was amazing!!! The quality, quantity were everything I could have asked for and more. Even more amazing was the extra choice of 2 pasta dishes. Lots of the guests were complimenting the pasta dishes, they were delicious. Ask one of our members of staff about what packages are available. I would highly recommend the buffet service the Bistro offers if you have any events coming up, great value for money and like the restaurant the food is so tasty and fresh and exceptional value for money SengaMCB Via TripAdvisor Had family meal for a birthday and everything really good. Took advantage of the take away menu the week after and just as good. Huge portions! DGMcKenzie Via Tripadvisor
