Wow, beyond my expectation. I walked in and from the first moment, the staff were very helpful. I was looking for somewhere to park they have parking at the rear. When I entered the place it was so much nicer inside, not what I expected. Much nicer, very busy, but Clara, the manager, still found me a table. I ordered a pork and crackling Sunday roast it was truly the best roast I've ever been served, perfectly cooked and so much on the large plate. I ordered the dessert to go as I didn't have room right there. Compliments to the chef. I Highly recommended "And why not" absolutely awesome thank you

"And Why Not" is not just a restaurant and bar; it's a sanctuary for the senses, a place where the warmth of hospitality meets the charm of unique decor. As I step inside, I'm enveloped by an ambiance that feels like a warm embrace from an old friend. The staff, with their welcoming smiles and attentive service, make me feel like royalty, ensuring my every need is met with enthusiasm and grace. The seating arrangements, both indoors and outdoors, are a testament to the art of coziness. The homely yet unique decor creates an atmosphere that transports me to another world. The carefully selected music in the background adds an enchanting melody to the dining experience, setting the perfect mood for a memorable evening. But let's talk about the real star of the showβ€”the food. Every dish is a masterpiece, crafted from fresh, locally sourced ingredients that burst with flavor. Each bite is a journey of taste, and the impeccable cooking and presentation elevate the dining experience to a whole new level of delight. It's as if the chef is a culinary magician, turning simple ingredients into extraordinary culinary creations. And of course, no visit is complete without exploring their extensive drink menu. The lush, fresh cocktails are mixed with precision and care, a testament to the artistry of the bartenders. Sipping on these cocktails is like savoring a piece of liquid art. In a world where dining experiences can be hit or miss, "And Why Not" stands out as a shining beacon of excellence. It's not just a place to eat; it's an intelligent fusion of taste, ambiance, and service that leaves a lasting impression. Every visit is a reminder of why this restaurant and bar holds a special place in my heart, making it a favorite destination time and time again.

Omg this is hands down the BEST breakfast we've had. Even the butter was amazing. We both had a "big breakfast" and it was certainly that. β€œBall bag” tomatoes were lovely - not too much juice, just right πŸ˜‚ Food was such good quality, cooked lovely, service was fab & the music was great too. Hands down worth every penny & the best brekkie in our local area.

Had a great time at bottomless brunch. Food was amazing, service was really good, only mild criticism was those whose first drinks were cocktails,lost 15 minutes of drinking time whilst being made. It would have been an idea to take the drink orders before we were seated, so they were ready for when we sat down. Highly recommend.x

We had a lovely evening at And Why Not and the Christmas menu in the restaurant was outstanding. Thank you to all the staff especially Jesse behind the bar and Clara in the restaurant. You all looked after us and we wanted for nothing, the service was excellent. Thank you again.
