A big thank you to all at Proper Gander. We had booked for 7 for a Birthday party on holiday. Tried to get a Taxi for such a large group and failed. These guys stepped up and provided us with a 3 course take away meal and a birthday cake. The food was exceptional and enjoyed by all. Would highly recommend.

Booked us in last minute, family of 5 on weekday, felt very much like a family business which I liked, the waitress was lovely and was nice seeing the chef work so we could thank him. Food was really good especially the lamb rumb and mint mash, really nice, the prawn tacos were nice also. My only one thing, pina colada I think del boy, cream, cherry, umbrella, this one tasted great but was served in short glass not a long glass, by that's more probably my expectation still tasted great. Went with three kids, 12/10/4 all enjoyed the food

What a truly brilliant place to start our holiday! The service we received was efficient and we felt well looked after. The food was amazing especially the scallops and cheesecake! Would definitely recommend to anyone for a special occasion or even just for a meal out.

Delicious food, presented well, fresh and filling. We stopped by for lunch and had our modest expectations blown away. The lunch portions were generous and priced remarkably well (5 per main course). Also, the service and amenities were quite welcoming to our family as they provided high chairs and children's cutlery. Fantastic experience.

Came here for valentines and weren’t disappointed. A small menu but in our experience that increases the chances of the food being fresh. Portions just right, service on the whole was very good although one member of staff was a little off that didn’t detract from the experience. Excellent food and a nice drinks choice.
