Simplicity has a great choice of locally sourced food, served very well. The magic point of Simplicity is its fantastic owner/chef, who introduced himself to each table and even shared some of his favourite wine with us!

The food at Simpliicity is consistently good and Saturday night dinner was no exception.

Simplicity was pretty busy considering the location and cold weather. The food was good and piping hot, but aside from the fixed price section it was a little more than we were expecting. Decent decor and ambience, and definitely worth a visit if you live in the area.

We were first timers to Simplicity and this was a delightful find. Great buzz in the restaurant and the food was well presentated, generously portioned and very tasty indeed. The goats cheese starter was gorgeous! The owner is so friendly and spends time working on the floor getting to personally know his customers.
If you are local, you must visit. We will most certaintly be back to this little quaint venue!

It's a lovely local restaurant with a real personal touch. Unfortunately there was only one vegetarian option. However, the food when it arrived was really nice. If you go at a popular time - be prepared to wait.
