The service is top-notch—always friendly and efficient. It’s not uncommon to see the owners themselves behind the counter, happily helping out with a smile. They make you feel right at home, which really adds to the overall experience.
Parking: 4/5
There’s decent parking available, though it can get a little tight or congested during busier times, especially when traffic is backed up entering or exiting the car park. Still, it’s generally easy enough to find a spot, and the location is great for bikers with lots of room for motorcycles.
