Another brilliant find courtesy of the Happy Cow app - Edit
The staff were so friendly and approachable. Family run business from English Ex-Pats. The staff were prepared for vegan customers and advised me that the mash had cream and the carrot and swede was cooked in honey. That being said you can fill yourself on homemade nut roast, roast potatoes, and other vegetables. Vegan gravy and vegan stuffing (sage and onion) is brought to you separately and you are given a plate to take to the carvery so the staff are aware you are vegan. Staff at the carvery swapped serving tongs to a clean set (without me asking) when serving me so that there was no cross contamination.
Read moreFor dessert there was a vegan chocolate brownie (served hot) with vegan ice cream (vanilla and chocolate chip).
Really lovely atmosphere, and beautifully decorated interior. A must visit when in the Costa del sol. If I could give 5 stars I would (unless fully vegan, 4 is the most I can give).

Really lovely staff, very nice inside, full vegan carvery - Edit
Full buffet style carvery, can have as much as you want and go back as many times as you want. And it’s every day for every meal. Nut roast cooked on side, with vegan gravy and vegan stuffing, and a vegan brownie with vegan icecream - plus lots of vegetable and potato options. Our waitress was lovely, very welcoming - and others were also extremely helpful and friendly. The restaurant itself is very nice inside, lots of cocktails, wine choices, high chairs also.

Good Sunday roast - Edit
The staff are great, the food was good. The only problem is, yes you do have to see dead animals at the buffet when you go to get your food. However they’re very vegan conscious and the chefs knew from our plates we were vegan, pointed out clearly what we can and can’t have and were very good about it.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Can do most things gluten free on request
Cons: There is meat on show to see which is not nice

Average carvery - Edit
The waitress never explained that we were to help ourselves so sat for 10 mins! Vegetables were a little hard and I'm not convinced the mash that everyone can have is vegan ie without butter. I was told to help myself to the gravy but thankfully I asked the chef and it was beef gravy! Got vegan gravy sent to my table after. OK experience but didn't enjoy being around heaps of meat!

It's a meat carving restaurant - Edit
If you expect to enter this restaurant and not see large chunks of meat being carved in front of you, or the smell of meat. Oh boy, you're in the wrong place.
Read moreThe nut roast was good, had a nice meal but it was weird going up to the buffet line and wait for my turn near to carver just to say "no meats" and wait for vegan options. But like I said food was good, just a strange experience
Pros: Vegan options were good
Cons: Meat meat and meat all around

Friendly and delicious - Edit
Really yummy vegan carvery buffet! The nut roast they offer is delicious. There was no vegan starter on the menu but they put together a beetroot salad for me. The owner says they hope to expand vegan options in the coming months.
