Food Scene

Lunch bites; panoramic sea views
Blas at Fronlas is a trusty cafe I always go to. Perfect for brunch, morning coffee with home made baked goods and family lunches. In the evening it puts on its Tapas hat and holds live entertainment from local musicians.

Modern British dining, decide between the relaxed bar atmosphere for a classic burger or opt for a more formal dining experience in the restaurant. Attracts a mixture of local and visitor trade that makes this place authentic but not too over the top cool.

This place is homely, nostalgic and has a rich history connecting to the French invasion. Food is simple and full of flavour, go for the pie of the day if its on the menu - its extremely satisfying on a cold day. Def worth a visit.

Hidden away down a side street, this place has a relaxed feel. Coffee is really quite good, staff are lovely, decor involves lots of natural wood. This is one of my favourites. Food is all locally sourced and not over done - perfect.
