The waiters were slow and my food was bad. I got sick afterwards. The potato wedges were good, and well seasoned. The Ambiente was gorgeous and super cute to take pictures. The portion size was very good.

Stopped by for lunch as they actually served food on their outdoor patio. Alys took good care of me and recommended a local dark ale, which was delicious. The fish and chips were very good with crispy potatoes and (not mashed) peas. The fish was perfect. Crispy on the out side and soft and moist on the inside.

Dry and old burguer bun. Visit you each 2-3 months and know the difference. This small detail makes the whole experience either pleasant or not. There is a huge difference between a dry and old bun and a fresh toasted one. The waitress couldn't care less, when I communicated this to her and she did not inform the manager, as well.

Needed food and a rest, The Newsroom gave me the best of both. Friendly, helpful service in a relaxed atmosphere. The food selection is nice, soup, burger and fries tasted great.
