12 senior ladies sharing a lunch date. Sitting on wooden benches with the drop down blinds flapping somewhat. Not ideal. 2 ladies ordered vegetarian pizzas some had chicken schnitzel and more had hake and chips or veg. My pizza was fine, thin base was how I like it. No complaints about the chicken, some said they had had better hake. Service good.

My word!!!! Out of this world. Stumbled upon this Gem accidentally.... Chicken Schnitzel is so juicy and the crumb is amazing. The mushroom sauce, well, I could eat by the bucket load.... The nachos.... My soul.... Soooo delicious.... Just amazing. Staff are super friendly and beers are cold. Will be back often. 🥰🥰

Lovely setting, pub-style vibe. Miss the music of Cecil though. Food is a hit and miss sometimes. Pizzas are great. Precious is the best water (do request her, we always do). Lovely owner. Definitely not fine dining, but thats not what you would expect going there. We go often and know what to expect.

Party of 10, food arrived at the same time for everyone however if you had ordered a pizza it was cold plus the mushrooms, green pepper and onions on pizza not cooked. Big take away plus. Who wants to eat a meal you paid in a restaurant at home?

Food was good. But takes long to arrive. Pity no dessert available except ice cream and then cones offered but came back to say cones were broken. So we settled for ice cream in bowls. I look forward to Driftwood returning to its former glory 🤞

Was there for my 18th, and been there emany times before. Wonderful atmosphere and scenery, really good tasting and looking food with very innovative edible baskets. Pet friendly. Amazing and friendly staff. If youre looking for a good breakfast lunch or dinner, I put this place high in my books.

Had not been there before. Pleasant,Rustic area, friendly staff, discount on meals for pensioners on Wednesdays. You are allowed to take your dogs there, which could be a problem, if not kept under control.

A great setting with good prices. The food could be a tad better in terms of quality and taste but its classic pub grub. We had Africa as our waiter and he was spectacular. We love this spot and will be back. It just needs that extra push to be 5 star.

Unfortunately our recent experience did not match other good reviews. Whilst I wrote this off as Monday morning problems, I hope another visit will have me change my mind and review.Stopped by the establishment to while away excess time before an appointment. I did not not specifically what time we sat down, but after initial coffee was finished (and food order already placed), it took another 40 minutes for the requested Eggs Benedict to be delivered. These were a disappointment, reeking of vinegar and apparently microwave poached. My partner could only manage one of the two eggs served.As saving grace: the chips were excellent, the chilli table sauces are tasty, the coffee was okay, or waiter was friendly, the setting is marvellous, and Im sure children will enjoy the two play areas and wide expanse of grass.Ill try again when I have another appointment in the area and amend as necessary.

My husband ummmed and aahed about where to go for breakfast. We eventually made our way down to Driftwood Café. (we hadnt been in a long while).We decided rather to have a snack basket each. My almost 6month old loved the chicken strips! I think he ate more than I did... Lol (not really).The owners are super friendly, waiters too 🙏👌🏻 Everyone jolly. All while following the rules, due to Covid.

Great food and tranquil setting. Owner or Manager was super friendly and welcoming. Food is fantastic, we had Ribs and a Steak and both were excellent. I noticed someone had some interesting Onion rings or something. Will try those next time! Also lovely place to listen to some local singing talent on Sundays, we enjoyed the music and it was not overbearing.
