What a gem just north of Barnet. Delicious pizza and lovely country views to enjoy. Post lunch coffees were also very... good. Staff are on the ball and always around to provide good service. Didn't go inside but the garden seating is great! Recommend a visit!read more

Honestly, one of the best pizzas I've ever eaten. Lovely, attentive staff, and a beautiful view from almost any of the... many seats outside. I think booking ahead on weekends would be clever, and always request outside, as there are so many sheltered options if the weather is iffy.Dessert recommendation: the homemade Banoffee Pieread more

Food, views and ambience was fantastic. Service was ridiculously slow and even when they weren’t that busy. Took over... an hour for desserts to come (just ice cream!) otherwise a very nice place and would return.read more

We went for my Daughter's birthday, it was lockdown so only outside seating in a force 10 gale. The staff were... amazing...we did a takeaway, although we didn't have the fun of eating out the food could not be faulted....delicious! On a warm day eating out with the amazing views of the countryside out back it is beautiful.....will return, but bravo to the staff for keeping going with such amazing grace and humour.read more

I celebrated my nomination earlier this evening in this gorgeous place. I am glad to say that we had a cool evening and... the venue was surely one of the reasons for that strong meeting. The waiters participated in a splendid manner, the meals were great and my friends were extremely glad. We shall absolutely return for more events. thanks very much.read more
