The pork was to die for and their carrot salad was just perfect. The beef and chiichuri was delicious and to be honest literally every single dish was the best it could be. The staff made us feel so welcome and were incredibly friendly and the place just really had a fantastic atmosphere. I actually can't wait to come back to Petersfield and eat here again.Some of the best food I have eaten in a restaurant in a VERY LONG TIME. Not even joking, the food was insanely good.

- MMerc15822/05/2024Perfect whatever the occasionPerfect whatever the occasionHaving visited on several occasions to enjoy tapas or just a coffee in the garden, we couldn't think of anywhere better to hold our wedding reception. Jaki and her staff were amazing, the food was wonderful, and the whole evening was a huge success. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, who even tidied and packed up all our decorations ready to collect the next day.Having visited on several occasions to enjoy tapas or just a coffee in the garden, we couldn't think of anywhere better to hold our wedding reception.
