My favourite brunch down the shore. New addition to the area - owned by the Pantry in Stockbridge, which we also recommend. They do everything from breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, drinks and a pub quiz. They are child and dog friendly also. Great place to sit outside for a drink to watch the sunset over the Shore.
