Good food and great views, can't go wrong.

The Lime Kiln Cafe and Bar is a solid pick for a sunny afternoon, especially if you've got a dog in tow. Tim and his furry friend Misty were all about that steak and burger life, while Fiona and her crew raved about the smoked fish platter, that apparently comes with a tartare sauce that would make the sea jealous. The terrace is where the sun's at, so if you're not soaking up those rays, are you even living?

Shoutout to Karen for being the real MVP of the service teamβ€”she’s as welcoming as a warm blanket on a chilly day. Don't be fooled by the picturesque views; the food’s not just for show. Gareth and Bridget gave their buttermilk chicken burger and smash burger a big thumbs up, proving this place is more than just a pretty face. If you’re after good vibes and even better food, this is one to hit up.
