Black Swan in Northumberland

Went here today 15/12/24 sat in the area for dogs as we had our Lowchen with us staff was all lovely. We ordered the bread assortment comes with butter & oil with balsamic. Then had the Sunday lunch it was absolutely gorgeous everything was so tasty best place to eat in seahouses. The day before we went to Bamburgh castle inn tasteless over priced a glass of wine £11.25 yes £11.25.

We visited here a couple of times for dinner. We had our dog with us so couldn't dine in the main restaurant part, but could dine in the bar area, which was absolutely fine with us. Always busy when we arrived, so had to wait for a table to become available as they do not take reservations in the bar area. Staff were all pleasant and friendly. I had the wild boar sausages and black pudding mash (£19). The portion sizes were very generous. The food tasted really good. The sausages were a good size and meaty and you got 3 of them. The mash was ok. I like black pudding, but really couldn't taste it. I guess there are some that are not so keen on black pudding mash. Staff are more than happy to swap the mash out for chips if you ask, as some other diners did. Had a side portion of onion rings, and i was pretty shocked when they arrived. Diners at the tables next to us all looked pretty shocked too! The onion rings were huge. They must be the biggest onions rings i've ever had served to me. They were as big as the main course. They were so large i couldn't eat them all. Size a side, the onion rings tasted great, had a good crunch and only cost £4. We also ordered a side of chips! The portion size was just huge, and all for £4.50. Honestly, we enjoyed the food and had a lovely time in the pub we went back the next day for dinner again...minus the onion rings.

This pub is fantastic ! The food is incredible . We’ve been a few times and never been disappointed. The Sunday lunch was outstanding . The beef sirloin was cooked to perfection . Pink, moist and totally delicious . The roasted carrots & parsnips were exquisite . The broccoli had a good crunch to it. Basically everything was perfect . The desserts didn’t either disappoint either . The chocolate orange sponge was light and fluffy and the chocolate sauce had a nice citrus tang to it . The creme brûlée was amazing , the custard was smooth and creamy with a perfect crack . Can’t wait to return!

Working on being a nice destination pub.

Cosy, friendly pub with good food to match. I can't praise it enough and I can't fault a thing. It was a short walk from where we rented and it would be an ideal pub living as a local - which I wish I did!

One of the nicest places we have eaten whilst on holiday in Northumberland. The Sunday Lunch was excellent we also came back a few days later and I had the fish and chips that were very good. My partner had the wild boar sausages that also was very good. On top of this they were very accommodating for the small miniature dachshund we had with us. I can’t recommend it enough.

We came here twice during our stay locally. Both times the staff service and quality of everything was excellent. The happy hour Mon to Thurs 3pm to 5pm is well worth visiting for as the prices of the cocktails are both reasonable and the cocktails themselves are very good. Second time we are there and the food was both excellent quality and large portions so take your appetite with you. The cost was not expensive for what you got. We went with a disabled friend in a wheelchair and the staff could not have done more for us. Very highly recommended.

Fantastic sea food will definitely be going back.

Great fresh seafood menu. The service was excellent

Nice bar. Happy hour cocktails 2 for 1 Monday to Thursday 3-5pm Food looked good, but didn't eat. Worth checking out.

Mussels were fantastic. Great service and atmosphere.

Just back from dinner to celebrate my mum's 70th birthday - party of 7. Food was delicious, great portion sizes. My dad said his burger was the best he's ever had! The restaurant has a lovely ambience, the bar was packed. I honestly can't recommend this place enough, well worth a visit

Was looking forward to visiting this pub, we booked a table but when we arrived despite obvious empty tables we were asked to wait in the bar despite there being no tables free. Did not find the staff to be particularly warm or friendly. In fact I felt we were a bit of an inconvenience. The food was lovely, I had monkfish Caesar salad which was gorgeous and a very good portion and then mussels which again I felt was very good value for money but was actually too much for me. It’s just a pity the overall experience was somewhat underwhelming.

Wish we had found this sooner! Lovely dog friendly pub, fab menu with plenty of Gluten free options. The sandwiches were fab, the brushetta wonderful. The staff were fab as were the other guests. Would definitely visit again

Delicious food in a welcoming pub - squeezed in at last minute. I had a huge bowl of moules mariniere and hubby had the lovely burger. Highly recommend

Amazing find in Seahouses. A gluten free lager on tap sold me from the moment I walked in! Very rarely find that!! The food was so tasty, the variety on the menu was fantastic and the portions for the price were unbelievable. Would come back here in a heartbeat. P.S. the GF fish finger sandwich was out of this world!!! The staff were so friendly and smiley. Thank you for a lovely lunch

Our meal and service was fine. We enjoyed our meal but disturbed by the ignoring of the German couple near to us by the staff. They sat long after they had finished their main course, with empty plates in front of them before anyone came to their table and asked about a dessert .This was uncomfortable. Tainted our experience.

Called to check it out as we were looking to eat that night at either the Black swan or the Ship. Had one drink and booked a table for a couple of hours later. Service was great and the food was excellent, just wish the lobster was a little bit bigger. Called at the ship after and knew we’d made the right choice

A very different Black Swan to the one we last went in before it closed down before COVID but the change is definitely for the better. It is lovely inside and beautifully decorated to a very high standard. A lovely atmosphere to sit and have a drink. We didn't eat but the menu looks amazing and we are definitely planning to eat here next time we are in Seahouses. A big plus are the 2 for 1 cocktails, Monday to Thursday, 3pm - 6pm and they are very good, very well made cocktails, all the staff have obviously been very well trained in mixology. All the staff were lovely, very helpful and very friendly. I highly recommend a visit here and we shall definitely be going back

Away for a long weekend celebrating our anniversary. Researched the likely eating places beforehand for our anniversary meal and booked a table in advance. Apart from being a little hard to find, tucked away in the back streets beyond the harbour, the welcome on arrival was warm and the table waiting. Having browsed the menu we ordered, together with an excellent bottle of Albarino to while away the wait whilst the meal was cooked fresh - fillet steak for herself and moules mariniere et frites for me. The fillet was cooked perfectly and entirely edible, whilst I struggled manfully to work my way through some 70+ plum Shetland mussels. The tables were basic and the ambience was spoilt rather by two self-important guys at different tables, but the service was impeccable, and we thoroughly recommend dining there. We'd go back but it's a long, long way from home.

Sunday lunch Roast Beef - excellent and good choice of local beer. Dog friendly area and all the veg cooked to perfection. Highly recommended.

Great atmosphere, great food locally sourced and best cocktails in Northumberland, be sure to check out happy hour.

Best Sunday lunch we have ever had! We booked as a treat for our wedding anniversary. Top notch grub and service! Beef melted in your mouth and you even got an extra jug of gravy 😊

We have been staying at Seahouses all week. During our stay we have had two lunches and two dinners at the Black Swan Inn. All our meals were generously portioned with excellent presention. They were excellent. Well done to all the team. FABULOUS.

We popped in for dinner tonight without a reservation, luckily we found a table in the bar. It was a great bustling atmosphere and really had a nice mix or locals and tourists. The food was delicious we both had steak and upgraded our fries to parmesan and truffle which was well worth it. Bar staff were great and cocktails fab too especially expresso martini!!

A beautiful lunch here on Tuesday 10th September at about 12:30. I made a reservation online only about an hour before but it wasn't all that busy when we arrived which was nice. Lovely food and very professional service by their young members of staff. A bit pricey, the most expensive meal for two during our six day stay in Northumberland...but really pretty faultless.

Probably the best restaurant meal I’ve had in Northumberland, in three years of visiting annually. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Enjoyed a lovely Sunday lunch at The Black Swan Inn. Food delicious, beef, yorkshire pudding and fresh vegetables. Service excellent. I would prefer a more comfortable chair, the wood ones were not great and left me quite numb. Would come again if in the area and the chairs are changed :)

Very loud atmosphere cannot hear without shouting. rude barman who also contributed to the noise with how loudly bottles were lobbed in the bin. Very jarring. Drinks were very expensive and food prices were very high. Don’t mind paying for good quality food but the service on the bar side wasn’t good. Don’t recommend for visitors, or tourists. Last thing, definitely not recommended if you have a dog. You will be given dirty looks by those in the restaurant area.

Excellent meal & service Good atmosphere

Went in to grab a nice dinner, went into the bar section and it was far too rowdy music blaring my ears off and some guy on bar who couldn't stop swearing. They call themselves dog friendly but give such a dirty look when we came in with ours. When ordering our drinks he told us to order our food in 15 minutes, after 15 minutes we came to order and he bluntly told us to sit back down and order after an hour because they were still too busy. Absolute horrific service, never again going in there unless they hire complete new staff, complete joke.

Was very disappointed with the service today ordered a round of drinks for 4 people 1 wine and 1 beer and 2 soft drinks £25 later was told 15 minutes to order food and then 45 minutes to order food and then by this time it would have been 9pm and then we would have been told it was to late to order food. The bar member of staff was male and very arrogant didn’t care and no apology very very rude and dissatisfied .

Very nice meal in nice surroundings

I liked the food but like everything in Seahouse, the food is rather expensive.

Food was truly awful ordered chicken supreme, and the plate came with a small piece of chicken a cup with gravy and nothing else and charged me 26 pounds disgraceful

Primo bar in Seahouses. Stayed right across the road on holiday so we made regular visits! Food is way above usual quality found in local pubs, prices reflect that but still fair value. Good range of drinks and terrific staff. Highly recommend.

Ordered the 8oz steak medium rare with blue cheese sauce. Very friendly and efficient staff. Steak was perfectly cooked and the sauce was delicious. Only complaint is that the food could come a little quicker but that's to be expected when visiting at peak time.

Amazing place. Worth a visit if you're in Seahouses. We were staying next door to the restaurant and it was highly recommended to visit by our host. Was really worth a try. I know we need to wait a bit but once you dish landed on the table it was just amazing. We tried mussels in various sauces. Bacon and cheese mussels was just a poetry. We also shared lobster which was just wonderful. Were not seafood lovers but we're delighted. Well worth a visit. Such a nice place. Nice ambient. Very professional service we can't fault. All food fresh and just done to perfection. Well be back. We'll worth recommending to anyone visiting Seahouses.

The actual food was very nice but the time taken to deliver the food was horrendous. It's a very long time since I've had to wait such a long time for food. We went in at 6pm and at 8pm we still didn't have a main course! Sadly we won't be back or not should you with so many other choices in the town. Disappointed!

Five stars, I took my Italian husband, who is always sceptical about England seafood, he voted it as the best he'd eaten. Beautifully clean, discreet but friendly and helpful service. I'm sorry I didn't get your name, but our Polish waiter was a pleasure, friendly but not invasive. We live in Puglia, south of Italy, where seafood is so good that most of it is eaten raw, but the mussels were the best I've ever had, and the Lindisfarne oyster the very essence of the North Sea. Thank you for making friends and family so happy.

There is no denying that the food here is outstanding but the meal was let down by the service. Although the staff were friendly and attentive, the wait for everything was just too long. We ordered 2 mains and they took the best part of an hour to come. We were on the verge of telling them to cancel the order and leaving. We could hear other customers grumbling about the same thing and from reading previous reviews, it doesn’t appear to be a one off issue either. The prices here are expensive with the mains ranging from approx £20 to £40 pp. In my opinion, when a pub (gastro pub or not) is charging those kinds of prices, the whole experience needs to be 100%, not just the food. In our case it wasn’t. When it was time for the bill, to be fair to the staff, they didn’t even bother adding a service charge (it would have been swiftly deducted anyway so at least it saved us having that conversation!)

The food here is very nice I had Fish and chips and my partner had Sunday lunch. Both very tasty. The only down side to this place is the unisex toilets. I am old school and identify as a man and found it uncomfortable going in. So as good as ot was, I won't be back.

I did not realise that it was a seafood restaurant, as i had read an old review. It was a pleasant supprise. We had muscles for starter and a ceasar salad. The ceasarbsalad was amazing, the muscles had a lovely rich sauce. We had a seafood platter between 3 of us, it was all really good and a generous portion. My favourite was the prawns and roll mop hearing. Well worth a visit.

I absolutely loved the Black Swan Inn! The best haddock and chips I’ve ever had in my life.

Tasty fish dishes and great service. Very happy to accommodate a smaller appetite with two starters for one of our group. They have a cosy bar, an orangery and an outside courtyard and are really close to the harbour.

Whilst holidaying in the area we ate at the Black Swan. The food was delicious, it caters for all with a mix of local fish and a good children's menu. The staff were helpful and lovely, the atmosphere was fab. Cannot recommend more highly. The lobster was fairly prices and yummy.

We had a wonderful dinner there on 5 August 2024. Daniel, a really professional and charismatic waiter, served us. The dinners had bigger-than-average portions and a good selection of wines and local cask beers. The restaurant is dog-friendly and outshines many of its competitors, The Restaurant side of the pub is Unpretentious, focusing on good quality food, good value and excellent service.

Just called in for a quick drink after walking from Beadnell. I'm so glad we did. The food and service were amazing

We ordered the beef sandwich and a seafood platter, service was alright and food was ok. Beef was tough though and a few of the mussels were still closed. A bit pricey when you take this into account. Place was empty when we arrived, but waiter seemed to make it look as if he would struggle to seat us. Some music and candle light might help with the general atmosphere. Decor was tasteful but toilets were a bit smelly, seemed fairly clean though. Comments regarding food were passed on to staff as feedback, didn’t seem like they would follow up with kitchen though, to be honest.

We loved having a date night here whilst on holiday in Seahouses. In fact, we came for cocktail hour and loved the place so much we came back the next day for dinner! We both thoroughly enjoyed the seafood, scallops, monkfish, mussels and freshly caught lobster, as well as the exquisitely prepared cocktails. The atmosphere was warm and friendly, whilst having a sophistication, beauty and glamour brought by elements like the orangery and the living wall in the courtyard. A gem on the Northumberland coast, the knowledgeable and attentive staff really made us feel welcome and can be very proud of what they offer. Well done!

Came to have a meal with my partner. This place offered great views and the decor was tasteful. Food was of a good quality and the staff was attentive to my food allergy. I enjoyed Lobster Thermidor and my partner had a good burger. The toilets were clean and in a good state. Booking online was nice and easily. Servers were attentive and worked hard in the beginning. What was a let down for me was after hearing two tables moaning about space on our table after being told my partner was “a larger man”getting through then server was taking desert order told there was a party of 6 and could we move if gave 15% off the deserts. Either they genuinely needed it for a group of six, or was shameful in way they treat bigger people who wanted to have a good meal. As people who don’t live here makes us feel not very welcome. This makes we feel like should avoid places like this. Although the food was good the service could be better after being moved out the way. Will I eat here again, no. Would I recommend trying, yes. Maybe your experience will be better?!

As with all pubs now in seahouses Well over priced, just ripping the tourists off.

Slow service, pricey but delicious food Should have mentioned that Sunday roasts finished a 3pm in Sunday

Had a nice pint and a glass of coke while visiting. Didn’t eat , but was witness to delivery of the freshest looking fish and lobster. The outdoor courtyard was perfect for visitors with a dog.

Honestly! This was the best thing I ever tasted. I had the Thai Red Curry which had Salmon, Monkfish and Prawns in it. Ever bite I put in my mouth, I was in heaven. It was so delicious. Everyone else's meals looked amazing and they all stated it was lovely. The menu was a vast range in price, dishes ranged between £12-70. I absolutely love trying new dishes and don't mind so much on the price is the quality is good. I can confirm the quality is top notch! The service was amazing and quick, they were very attentive and making sure everything was good and that we had a drink at all times. The staff were so lovely and kind. I loved the decor in the restaurant/pub, there was the dining area which was more formal, but was cosy. Whilst the rest was very cosy and had such a chilled vibe. Their was so much choice for drinks and plenty of draughts/ales to choose from. I would definitely come here again.

Delicious food exactly as described on the menu. Portion sizes excellent. Serving staff were attentive and knowledgeable. Super experience from start to finish. Yum!

Absolutely fantastic pub. Just appears as a pub initially but step through to the eating area and WOW! Visited for lunch and had the steak sandwich. Then it arrived packed with meat, onions, mushrooms & loads of delicious gravy! Absolutely delicious and very filling! Worth every penny!

Fabulous food, couldn't fault it, and our server (Daniel) was very helpful and pleasant. However, the bill was a bit more than it should have been - one dish charged £2 more than on menu and a 15% discount card was only given 10%. We didn't pick it up, as the food had been so good, but it was already quite an expensive place, so this was disappointing.

Without doubt a hidden gem, fantastic food and service, better than most high end pretentious city centre restaurants. Already planning our next visit

Great food, fish and chips delicious. So many chips! Friendly staff, good atmosphere.

Enjoyed a delicious meal here on Friday 28th June, we sat in the bar as we had our dogs with us, but it was lovely . The staff were very friendly, I would definitely recommend this place .

Chose the Black Swan for my wifes birthday meal as it had a seafood platter on the menu. When it arrived at our table it wasnt so much a meal but a dining experience. It was amazing from variety to taste. Felt guilty not finishing it all but we gave it a really good try. Could not fault the meal or the sevice at all. If your hungry and love seafood would highly recommend.

Simply, the best meal we've had in Seahouses and Bamburgh. The Black Swan sets the bar by which all other restaurants in the area should be achieving. Service was spot on, friendly and helpful. Food was amazing and very competitive pricing for the area, with good portion sizes too. Best gastro pud/restaurant in Seahouses by far, and foodie rock stars.

Amazing food, decent beer selection.

Excellent food variations in a beautiful setting. We will come definitely again….

Just excellent! So good we went twice in 2 days. Highly recommended

A truly wonderful addition to Seahouses. Beautiful local food prepared exquisitely. The Thai Fragrant Mussels were a stand out, as was the lobster thermidor. The bar was well stocked and produced fantastic cocktails, even tailoring and recreating classics to fit personal tastes. I cannot recommend them enough, all the staff were friendly and exceeded our expectations. Will absolutely be booking again next time we are in the area

Great lunch. Local oysters, and a good selection on a la carte and quick lunch menu.

Called into The Black Swan today 3/6/24 and had the fish chips and mushy peas,and it was absolutely gorgeous. I would definitely call in again.

We didn’t know what to expect, but were amazingly surprised by the food!!! Delicious!!! A really high standard!!!!

Great afternoon cocktails were amazing great friendly service

Fantastic food, great service, good pint of ale. Fish of the day Thai Red curry was awesome.

Really nice food. We shared the seafood Platter between 2 people, and it was really nice. There was so much from oysters to patte and fried crab. It included lots of fish and good value for money, and it will keep you full. Everyone else's food was nice too and we all enjoyed our meal. The service and atmosphere were good aswell, it had traditional stone walls and fireplaces. Overall, it was a really nice meal and you won't be disappointed if you order the Seafood Platter.

Second time visiting Seahouses, glad we came across this restaurant, very tastefully decorated and a nice relaxed feel. Staff were very helpful and were always around if needed. We tried the fish sharing platter which was fantastic. A great choice of shellfish and fish beautifully presented and the smoked dip was amazing. Would definitely recommend this dish for anyone who is trying out the restaurant.

Sunday lunch one of the best don’t forget the Bloody Mary

Staff were lovely and the food was amazing!

Honestly couldn't fault anything about this place, the food was incredible and the service was so lovely, I could have stayed for hours! would definitely recommend

This is a nice pub/ restaurant and the food is excellent, however the service was really poor. We waited about an hour and 20 minutes for our starter and then probably another hour for the main. This is totally unacceptable. The staff and manager were pleasant enough but I would have preferred to have known from the start that the food was going to take so long and then I would have had the option to go elsewhere. By the time the main course did arrive I didn't really enjoy it that much as I had been waiting so long. Apparently they were short of staff. Unfortunately I probably won't be returning which is a shame as the food is really good.

This is an excellent pub/restaurant recommend that you book a table for the restaurant as it does get busy. The food was excellent the staff were attentive even though they were very busy. Called in the day before for the happy hour nice cocktails on offer.

We ate at the Black Swan recently. I had the Sous-vide, pan-seared pork belly. Sous-vide is supposed to enhance the flavour and tenderness of the meat. It didn’t. One of my pieces of belly was 90% fat, which had not been rendered and was cold and uninteresting to the point of being inedible. The other piece had much more meat in it, but the skin was tough and the meat was unlike how I usually expect belly pork, which should be meltingly tender. Nor was there any indication of pan searing. The smear of black pudding puree that accompanied the meal didn’t seem to have much point except to hide whatever taste the few mushrooms might have had. The croquettes were not crisp and the taste did not remind me of their honey or mustard claim. In all the meal was uninspiring and a disappointment. When asked, separately by two of the wait staff how the meal was, I replied ‘a bit heavy’ and ‘heavy’. Neither queried the comment. I had looked forward to our meal and didn’t want to start a discussion in front of our friends, one of whom had booked the evening meal for us. Usually we have at least a dessert or share a couple between us. My friends decided not to take a dessert or to even have a coffee/tea which is unusual. I’m not writing for anyone else, but was left feeling more than a little disappointed.

Fantastic seafood platter... our advice is, if you go for that, don't have a starter - you won't be able to finish it!!! A lovely pub - will definitely call again..

The best fish finger sandwich ever!

Happened on this place by chance last Sunday - thought it looked good and oh my I was right! Such a lovely vibe, drinks were amazing (the care they took over a bloody mary was just something else) but the absolute deal maker was the seafood platter - one of the finest things we've ever eaten in a pub restaurant! Genuinely top class. Highly recommended!

The food and service was excellent.

Love this pub. The best view from.the var stools. The best cocktails. Not eaten here but keep saying we should. Lovely cosy friendly atmosphere. I know it's raining in the pics but still a great view

Great find for our lunch, awesome music, proper mixologist bartender for my Mai Tai cocktail (gorgeous), local beer (Seahouses Blonde), Smoked Haddock Chowder and Posh Fish Finger sandwich. Great atmosphere, friendly and quality food ... Happy Punters 😁👍

What a find! In a small harbour town. We’ve eaten here twice over the last week. Tonight I had the fillet steak. It has to have been one of my top three steaks ever. Given that the other two are Wolfgangs on Maddison in New York, and Ruth’s Chris’s Steak House in Toronto it’s in incredible company. The steak itself cut like butter. It was cooked perfectly. And it was accompanied by crispy onions to die for and beautifully cooked home-made chips. The atmosphere is relaxed and fun, but with some real class. The staff were incredible too! Thank you so much for a memorable meal

Superb. The haddock chowder and Moules were fabulous 👌 👏

Excellent in every way. Catch up with relatives and and family.

I booked Sunday 17 march for Sunday lunch 3 weeks before. We arrived at 4.30 to be told they had run out of Sunday lunch, lamb and belly pork. Disappointed doesn't come close!! Basically fish or burgers available. I ended up with a starter of scallops in cheese sauce which was absolutely lovely. Lacking in atmosphere and very cold. If I had been told that Sunday lunch may not be available at that time I would have gone elsewhere.

Lovely place to spend a couple of hours after a day's walking. Great food. Great service. Looking forward to going back later this week!

Visited for an evening meal whilst staying nearby, lovely dog friendly setting in the pub area with a roaring fire. We ordered fish and chips and pork belly, both delicious. We did have quite a wait for our food with no updates from the staff which was a slight let down on a fairly quiet weeknight, but would recommend.

Called in as not been in since it was refurbished. Had the dog with me but made to feel welcome (although daytime only(. Had a pint of neck oil and the food. Excellent.

Having moved into our weekend cottage Ic and Flic needed a beer. I had to walk 73 steps to the front door of this pub. Their little legs need a lot more. Happy to find three real ales on handpump. Had an Alnwick brewery beer for the first time. Had to try all three and all very good. ( also Hadrian Border and Firebrick brewery.) Lovely pub with great bar and fireplace. Also a restaurant rear room plus a conservatory beyond. Then a lovely shelteted patio beyond that. Loved the music. Restaurant priced food, rarely seen lobster on a pub menu. Dog friendly bar. Great staff.

Gorgeous restaurant with beautiful food and a fantastic atmosphere. The food was delicious and the cocktails were super tasty! And strong ;)

First time eating here and it was lovely. Staff were friendly and food was great.

Lovely gastro pub in such a lovely setting, been refurbed to a very high standard and it looks fantastic, staff were great, cocktails were delicious, open fire was lovely and dog friendly too!

What a fabulous pub in Seahouses. Highly recommend for a great choice of ales/lagers. Fish and chips possibly the best Ive had and Sunday roast amazing

Visited as a group of 10 so we had to pre order which was fine. Got there on time, but another big group had turned up late putting a lot of pressure on the staff. There was a bit of a delay getting our food but we didn’t complain because the staff were lovely and kept us up to date with the delays. We were in no hurry anyway. They even deducted a round of ten drinks from our bill as an apology which they didn’t have to do. Food was absolutely superb, I had Sunday roast, it was amazing. Thank you, hope to be back next year

The food is exceptional, a great atmosphere, and great service.
