When to visit for the best experience

Late afternoon to early evening offers the most magical lighting, with sunset casting warm tones over the hills and water. Weekdays are quieter and ideal for a relaxed dining experience, while weekends bring a lively atmosphere perfect for those who enjoy a bit of buzz.

Photography Guide

Capture the perfect shots

• Position yourself near the window during golden hour for soft, flattering light on both food and scenery
