Absolutely delicious. I'm sure you saw that coming. Fish and chips aside, the staff is always very kind and the atmosphere is pretty welcoming when you go inside. Although, I will admit I've never sat and ate inside for fear of embarassing myself as I tend to make indecent sounds when I eat food as delicious as the...
