THE WEIR

The Weir is the type of spot that lures you in with its scenic lake views and traps you with its decent food. After a muddy canal walk, I stumbled in, and let me tell you, the Full Weir breakfast hit the spot. The staff, while a mixed bag, had a friendly vibe that added to the experience. But watch out for the service—seems like they’re still figuring out their table system because burnt bread was a recurring theme for some.

If you’re planning a family outing, the kids’ playground is a solid distraction while you chow down on BBQ buffet staples like steaks and burgers. Just make sure you check your burger for doneness—raw mince isn’t the surprise you want on a Sunday afternoon. Overall, it’s a hit or miss, but the good vibes and nice coffee might just be enough to keep you coming back for more.
