We have been long-standing customers of the Gannet for over 15 years and it’s always a treat when we are in town.We had a wonderful experience with a friendly waiter, food that was beautifully prepared and overall it was a great experience. Not even mentioning the great view and great hospitality!

So deserving of all the awards! We were not disappointed. The service was extraordinary and the food was absolutely delicious. We were surprised at how quickly they served our food, despite being quite full! And the ice cream was out of this world. Thank you, Café Gannet!

Just finished a wonderful lunch with family. Lovely setting, superb service from out waitress(Charlotte) and amazing real fresh fish, not the fake "freshly frozen" rubbish.
