Its great for a Sunday morning walk from No 9, along the beach or cliff top all the way from Palm Bay bandstand. Takes about 30-40 minutes. They have a lovely sea view and the whitebait is delicious. Staff can be grumpy sometimes but the sea views and walk are worth it.

Its a very relaxed place to go in your walking boots straight from the beach. The pizzas are freshly baked in their big clay oven and are crispy, thin and delicious.

New restaurant in town. Not been yet. Menu looks very interesting but it is quite expensive. There is a cheaper, taster menu at lunch time. My friends like it.
