The staff went above and beyond to make my birthday special! We rang ahead to notify them of my gluten and dairy allergy. The food was absolutely amazing! Highly recommend in general but especially if you have allergens.
The female staff were excellent with the three young children we brought. Patience par excellance. Food lovely. Prices increased but it is understandable with observing new rules. Plenty of customers there.
Absolutely fantastic experience, felt at home and looked after from beginning to end. Warm and cosy atmosphere and the staff are fantastic so friendly and efficient and nothing was too much bother. The food was served piping hot and cooked to perfection. I would highly recommend here and can't wait to come back in the very near future. We'll don to all đđ
Went for dinner here mid week and was delighted to see that 3 courses were available for 39 euro and kids eat for free. We sampled the goats cheese bob bons with sharon fruit and raspberry dressing, and goats cheese and beetroot arancini for starters, fish and chicken for mains and lemon cheesecake and a very well presented and tasty eton mess for desserts followed by a generous and tasty cheeseboard. Everything we got was top quality. This was supplemented by complimentary bread and an inspired fennel seed and herb dipping oil. The oil was so good I bought some from the onsite deli counter. I couldn't believe the value available and the female server was the right mix of personable and professional. Definitely recommend.
14/07/2024: Thatch and thyme can be great for a catchup coffee with friends or to break up a long journey. Unfortunately it's not consistent.
Negatives first which hopefully can be reviewed and improved. Eggs Benedict, royal and similar are always tasty but the baps are always soggy, not sure is this from water off the egg or the sauce. Got the porridge recently and was expecting fruit compote, honey and muesli, received slightly undercooked porridge, tiny bowl of 1-2 cut strawberries, few seeds in another bowl. No honey. No cutlery. A friend got the açaà smoothie bowl, with fruit, coconut and muesli. Muesli was missing, didn't taste like açaà and was super runny. It did taste nice, presentation was lacking,the fruit had sunk to the bottom.
The salmon and chicken salad plates can often be a bit dry around the edges.
There is no baby changing table in the bathroom?
The baby chairs do not seem like restaurant quality and are very unsteady on the natural floor. They are also filthy. I don't think the straps have ever been washed. Some of the clips to hold the tray were broken.
Positives: On a good day the fish is cooked perfectly, the menu has great options, lovely salads. Coffee is really good. Hake when it's on is to die for, flavors all compliment each other. Open sandwich on their brown bread is so filling. Goats cheese tart and beetroot is really tasty. Has real depth to the taste.
The flagstone floor adds character and is probably a nightmare to clean but it is kept tidy considering. The outside area is lovely with fresh herbs growing and for a small area they have done a fantastic job.
26/04/2024: The pan fried hake was absolutely supreme. This nicest I've ever tasted. A sociable and interactive environment. I decided to stay for desert, the rhubarb crumble was fabulous.
