We enjoyed our meals at merienda. We had burgers (one veggie and one beef brisket) which were both delicious and well accompanied and the Lemon Posset. Our dog was made welcome too. Not a fan of the table we were on - 2 seats side by side and a long wait for dessert order to be taken but they were the only niggles. Warm welcome, great food, nice atmosphere.

Lovely food (veggie burger and the corn fritters). Service is efficient but not over friendly. Great that our pup could join us too. Only issue is lack of toilets (only 1 unisex) means queues in the middle of the ground floor and/or waiting.

I am biased but this restaurant is really excellent. I have never come away thinking am I ever going to return. In this case a visit on Friday is followed by one on Sunday.

The food was OK though I didn't feel there was enough variety, or not much that I was that interested in. The restaurant was quite cod, we were sat with our coats on and the toilets very awkwardly placed, right next to the toilet and like an ice block. It's a shame because lunches are lovely here, not sure that I'd choose to go here for dinner again.

Delicious, fresh and impeccably cooked food with simple but perfectly complimenting wine options. Warm, cosy cafe feel, relaxed but attentive serving. Priced appropriately. Can’t wait to go again.

Amazing food and great customer service from the man behind the bar- less so from the two women who spent their time chatting then stood right in front of our table laughing loudly with some men who popped in for a chat. Maybe think what this is like as a customer experience... however the food was excellent, the overall experience, less so
