Friendly staff and lovely atmosphere
My sister and I visited for drinks and enjoyed some delicious bread. The manager and servers were incredibly friendly and wonderful people. We arrived around 4: 30 pm, and it wasn't too busy, contributing to the lovely, quaint, and beautiful atmosphere. The prices are reasonable. I plan to update this review after trying a full meal here. We did enjoy munching on their delicious bread.
