Food is prepared quickly. Price is slightly expensive. My vegan burger tasted good. Toilet is clean but does not have hooks for bags. I hope they can add hooks.

We had an excellent experience at The Gannet today. Great value food and a very warm, welcoming and efficient service, especially from our waiter Adam. Thank you

The service is good and the restaurant has always been quiet when we’re there. You’re able to order your food through the app and the food comes out really fast. It’s quite expensive for what it is but is tasty food.
