Went here for lunch today with my partner and it was a lovely experience. We had open sandwiches with sides and everything was beautifully presented, very tasty and was obviously made with good quality ingredients. Very friendly staff and a relaxed environment. Good value for money.

Visited for lunch today. Everything was positive. Lovely food. Very attentive and friendly service. An unhurried meal (quote from lovely waitress "you can stay for as long as you want!).

Having been to Blinis many times over the last twelve years we were surprised to find several free tables at 1.30. The reason may be the food, which has really gone downhill. The burger was pretty standard but the accompanying 'gourmet' chips were anything but - enormous, flabby and undercooked - while the victoria sponge was a peculiar muddy brown colour with the wrong sort of sponge, one thick layer of goo, plus it tasted disgusting. To be fair they didn't charge us for this excrescence. The saving grace was the polite and friendly service from a bearded waiter (his colleague evidently hadn't finished his course at the charm school) and as always the perfect location and light comfortabl;e atmosphere, although the chairs were getting a bit grubby and could do witrh a clean. As others have said, a disappointing experience and maybe one not worth repeating.

Very tranquil and a lovely atmosphere. Warm and friendly and attentive staff. Menu lots of choice and great quality. Would highly recommend visiting there.

I have been to Blinis a few times and have always been happy with the food and the atmosphere. This time I tried the 'grilled halloumi in a toasted bap with hummus, roasted red pepper & sweet potato fries'. Not being a sweet potato fan I switched to 'aspen fries; skinny skin-in fries with truffle oil & parmesan'. The grilled halloumi was cold and tasteless: halloumi needs to be properly grilled/pan fried to bring out its flavour, and preferably served hot. The 'skinny fries' seemed to be standard catering pack chips with no obvious taste of truffle oil and precious little parmesan, and not particularly skinny. Blinis has an interesting menu, why should it be beyond the the capabilities of any chef to peel & slice a few maris pipers and make proper chips/fries? Rather than pudding we decided on cake & coffee. The Devon Apple Cake was dry and distinctly lacking in apple. Although the restaurant was 'fully booked' and a number of people were turned away, fewer than half the tables were actually occupied...I can only surmise that, like many establishments, they are suffering from staffing problems. As I say, I like Blinis so that's why I am probably being generous with 3 stars.

Was here several years ago and whilst clean and friendly this time the food was poor. The prawns had been nuked and my partners tempura weren’t great. Probably still good for a coffee and sandwich but would stay clear of the ‘cooked’ mains.

It was so good to find a cafe/restaurant with a different and interesting menu. Reasonable prices for the location, the quality of the food and the service. Lunch really felt like a special treat. A special shout out for the key lime pie - zingy and delicious.

Watch that deal for two courses on the main menu. More expensive than buying some dishes individually. About 15 - 20% more. Food was great though.

Great place for brunch, lunch or dinner. Fabulous food menu, service and atmosphere but but feel it’s lacking on the alcoholic beverage front with a very limited offering. Highly recommend the steak sandwich and the egg custard tart! Devine!!!

Enticed by the prospect of blinis, which I love, this is a welcoming place with great staff. And it may be the other things on the menu are more thrilling, but our blinis with scrambled eggs and smoked salmon were uninspiring. Slightly overcooked eggs, bland smoked salmon underneath the eggs (on top is much better IMO) and no yeasty taste to the blinis. We might come back for other menu options - the vibe is quite nice.

We want to thank the people at Blinis for their hospitality today. We turned up at lunch time as drowned rats after a sudden downpour. looking for coffee. Although they were just doing lunches, we were welcomed in and had a nice Coffee, tea and coke. We also tried the mince pies, brownie and Devon apple cake, all of which were excellent. Thank you for letting us in and for the fantastic cakes!!

Professional, friendly staff. Beautifully presented, delicious food. Lovely ambience. Great value for money. What more could you ask for?

Excellent service, atmosphere and value for money. Friendly, efficient and attentive staff. Peasant surroundings.

Heard this was a good place. When we got there at 3.30 it was empty and we thought oh no. However it was very good. Scallops and rib-eye steak sandwich both very good. And my word the egg custard tart was fantastic. Service was excellent and price about right. Give it a try. I’m guessing in the evenings it gets packed. It’s worth finding.

Had lunch with friends at Blinis last Saturday. The food was lovely and the menu was mouthwatering. And the service was very welcoming.

A great place to eat or have a coffee in Sidmouth. We had a fish lunch of high quality, much higher than expected in a cafe. Service was friendly & efficient.

Second visit. Super food and fantastic service from lovely staff as before. Steak sandwich was excellent as was the Ham Hock Hash ( I was told as I wasn't allowed a taste). Really nice relaxed place.

Had lunch today which was, as usual, excellent in both taste and presentation. The staff are welcoming and helpful

We chose Blinis from the internet having never visited before. The systems in place for COVID were efficient & made it feel a safe environment. The staff were very friendly & efficient. The food was very good.

Dropped in for lunch. Lovely place just off the front Nice steak sandwich. 28 day old char grilled and chips. Nice meal no room for afters. Polite friendly staff.

Met by the enthusiastic staff, all COVID guidelines in place and absolutely kept to. Lovely lunch as always, Rare for me to choose a burger however I did and really enjoyed it. Thanks for a lovely relaxing lunch.

Went for lunch with some girlfriends and just HAD to write a review to say thank you- how amazing your food was as always. Mike is a wonderful host and the food is the best in town. I had the goats cheese with candied walnuts and it was fabulous. Thanks again Mike and team, will be back soon. As locals, we’re thrilled to have Blinis in our little town.

Found this cafe/restaurant purely by chance. We were warmly welcomed and were able to obtain the last table for lunch. A very comprehensive and more than adequate menu containing full meals as well as alternatives. Food was excellent as was the service. Thoroughly recommended.

We had good food in a number of Sidmouth restaurants but this was by far and away the best. 3 courses for £25 and each one home made and delicious. Fresh ingredients and cooked with love. The lovely staff helped me to celebrate my boy friends surprise birthday. Amazing evening. Top notch restaurant

Had to try Blinis for dinner as we have only ever visited at lunchtime. Party of 6, ages 17 - 77, all had a wonderful meal and a really happy occasion. Very clean and safe, fantastic service! Can't fault this place.

Had a beautiful 2 course meal, best I've eaten in a very long time! The service received was brilliant, both warm welcoming and quick service.

Lovely food, lovely staff, lovely place. Can’t wait to return! Lumy and Agnes were sensational - so much so we had to ask their names for this review.

Modern cafe bar, good for light meals and snacks. Little choice of ales. Good service but a little overpriced.

Met a friend for lunch and we decided to go to Blinis. The service was very good indeed, and the food wonderful. It was a quickish lunch - friend had the grilled goats cheese on walnut toast etc. - no problem needing gluten free. I had sun dried tomato and red pepper pesto pasta which had loads of flavour and was really good. Whilst Blinis is not the cheapest of places for lunch, the food is very good indeed, and the service friendly and helpful. Will go there again.

Met a friend for lunch today at Blini's. Mike is always friendly and welcoming and we ordered main courses after a quick soft drink. I have to say that I have had some burgers in my time ( you could tell if you knew me) but the cheeseburger with crispy bacon was honestly the best I have had outside of Las Vegas ( which was a Big Kahuna Burger for those of you who have seen the film "pulp fiction" and was mind blowing) anyway this was served in an Soft fresh white roll, and the ground beef served "medium" which is the right way to have a burger in my book, was absolutely fantastic. I have to honest here and say that I had one last week and thought it was so good, I had to have another !! All we need now is some skinny fries eh Mikey!!Thank you and don't take it off your menu until I have had enough of them!

Excellent choice on menu.Fairly priced.Excellent service We ate our meal and sat and chatted for an hour, no pressure to leave, was great. Would so recommend.

I only ate hreakfast here but a wide choice and full English beautifully cooked. What also impressed was the waiters who have great memories for their customers.

Had a delicious meal at Blinis today! The staff were very welcoming and friendly and nothing was too much trouble! My husband and I had the salmon and the crispy skin was ‘just right’! The crushed new potatoes were absolutely delicious as was the asparagus. My daughter and partner both had open sandwiches with an extra sides portion of skinny fries which they really enjoyed and also thought delicious! The key lime and ginger pie desert was delicious and beautifully presented with fresh raspberries and blueberries..mine was served with a generous portion of fresh cream in a small jug and my husband’s with ice cream! We finished our meal with a cappuccino which was also served with a small wrapped biscuit and when we finally asked for the bill it came with a yummy individually wrapped chocolate mint chocolate each! All in all a very enjoyable meal and we will certainly visit again whenever we’re in this part of the country again!!

First time eating at Blini’s today - was recommended by a family friend. Went for lunch with my family and was not disappointed.We booked ahead as heard it can get busy.The menu had a good range of options, from open sandwiches to tasty hot meals - I had the rare beef open sandwich with a side of skinny fries with truffle oil and Parmesan - delicious!!!The staff are friendly and chatty and couldn’t fault the service.Shame we are going home soon or would definitely have visited here again!!Highly recommended.

We’re foodies and they can definitely cook. Despite living here we’ve only just found Blinis and this is our go to place for lunch- shame they’re not open in the evening though. Well don though!

Coffees and snacks are the order of the day in Bilinis. Alsways very welcoming and good servie. Very popular with the locals

We enjoyed an excellent lunch here today with friends. Lovely food and very hospitable welcoming restaurant in the centre of Sidmouth close to the sea front.

What a pleasant surprise ! We went in for a coffee and stayed for lunch ! The waiters were very pleasant, the food delicious and it did not cost the earth! We will certainly come back !

Popped in for lunch when staying in the area. I had goats cheese on walnut bread with leaves and chopped walnuts my partner opted for a sandwich of rare roast beef with chutney and we shared a gormet chips. Food was nicely presented and very decent portion size and very tasty. Service was professional and pleasant. Happy to recommend

My favourite place is sidmouth, I wish it would open in the evening then I wouldn’t have to eat mediocre food in the other places. Great menu and everything is delicious. We had crab pate, blinis and a burger all good washed down with great wine. Ice creams to finish and we all loved salted caramel best. Great staff, go there

Excellent skate and capers fish cakes unusual combination. Efficient pleasant service. Wife left some shopping behind, went back and they were going to return it to the hotel we mentioned we were staying at. Very considerate. Staff Romanian

Blinis is part of the Royal York & Faulkner Hotel here in Sidmouth and is a more up-market eatery. The menu is always great and the service second to not many. They are always popular and it is sometimes necessary to book, but well worth the effort

…and first tasting confirmed the suspicions.

Came here wihh my partner on a Saturday afternoon for lunch. Was able to book a table a couple of days before (booking highly recommended!) we were not disappointed! Great service and amazing food. Deffinetly a must visit if in Sidmouth!!

We used to love this place but our last visit has put us off for good. The food just wasn't very tasty, the wine was over-priced, the service was hurried and bordered on rude at times and complaints were not followed up. I think the restaurant has grown complacent, but word will soon get round as Sidmouth is a small place and people talk. I don't know whether the senior staff own the place, I do hope not, and will wait and see if it comes under new management.

We popped in here for breakfast and were met by two friendly faces. We both chose the poached egg on a blini with bacon and roasted tomatoes. The poached egg was perfectly cooked and the bacon was delicious. The presentation was very attractive and we had two very good cappacios. Would certainly recommend.

Blini' s has been consistently good for a late lunch, for about 10 years, providing comfortable chairs, good food, and friendly service. Worth a visit.

We were a party of 8 adults and requested a table for lunch on Saturday, 30th December and we did appreciate that they were busy were told they did not accept 8 people without a booking. We tried booking on the 31st and were told it was not possible. We accepted that they were busy and couldn't accommodate us but it was the unfriendly and discourteous attitude that upset us.

Hadn’t been to Blinis for years but went in for lunch this week on Monday. They were very busy with most tables reserved but we we were lucky to be seated. There was a normal menu and a specials menu to choose from which was really difficult as everything sounded lovely. My friend and I decided to share a starter of home made duck pate served with thick toast and an obviously home made delicious chutney and some leaves. It was really good and plenty for two at £6.95. I opted for an open lasagne of monk fish , smoked salmon and prawns in a light lemon cream sauce. It was really yummy with beautiful home made pasta and lots of fish and prawns. My friend had the roasted duck leg with a gratin of potatoes cabbage and a lovely sauce served separately. Although quite full at the end of our main courses we succumbed to sharing a spiced pear crumble served with Christmas pudding ice cream! The crumble was excellent, very chunky and loaded with pecans! The total bill including my friend’s large glass if pino was just short of £45. So ignoring the wine our food cost was about £19 each which was excellent value for such good well presented food and excellent friendly service. We will return!

My partner and I had most awful experience in this place recently and I have to say something to warn others. The Head waiter was extremely rude. The reserve signs on the tables were not clear at all. Some of them were set for two hrs ahead of the current time and after being snapped at for choosing the wrong table initially we were left akwardly trawling all the tables without assistance, we just wanted was a quick breakfast. The other staff were helpful and kind but the head waiter lept at me enraged, telling me if I could read the reservation I would see this table was booked out within the hour, then again when I gently suggested another table the same. He snapped very aggressively.

We visited Blinis for a rest and a drink. We both had a Mocha and a hot chocolate, both of which were superb.

Great location, food and service. Lovely just for a coffee, a snack or lunch. Would definitely recommend.

Just had coffee but food looked good. Comfortable sofa. Coffee servrd with a biscuit and a friendly smile.

Habíamos oído sobre Blinis, pero nunca lo probé. Tuve un sándwich de bistec que tenía demasiado delicioso bistec perfectamente cocinado, para ser contenidas en un sándwich que era genial. Las patatas fritas eran preciosas y suaves. Mi familia tenía una hamburguesa - aparentemente muy bueno y skate pasteles de pescado, que bien. A primera vista parecía inaccesible para sillas de ruedas, hay una rampa portátil. Volveremos.

Good coffee and friendly staff. Part of the hotel next door. A modern clean environment. Reasonably priced.

Esta fue nuestra primera visita y sin duda volveremos de nuevo. La comida era deliciosa y bien presentada y el servicio era genial. Los camareros eran muy amable y accesible. Lo recomiendo encarecidamente.

Prometieron volver, de haberlo hecho, había un menú amplio y variado para elegir, y la comida era excelente. El personal era de primera clase, muy amable y acogedor y a un precio razonable. Merece la pena visitar cuando en Sidmouth.

Nice atmosphere in bar setting ideal for drinks and food. We had a couple of flutes of prosecco. Prompt attention and friendly staff.

Just went in with friends for coffee. Really friendly staff,Good value and lovely atmosphere. Well worth a visit.

We have visited numerous times, but somehow never found this place. So glad we have now though - the food was delicious. Really well presented and the waiter was so lovely. Thoroughly recommend this restaurant.

"could i have my Kir Royale with Creme de Mure?" I asked, "NO Kir Royale only with Cassis, that is KirRoyale" (which is untrue), any decent restaurant do it. Then turned out not real ones anyway, bright fake colour n not real champagene, tasted horrid. Then "Could you replace potato to either veg or salad for me"? I asked, "NO that is the dish" pointing at the menu, "but im allergic", "will remove the potato then". 45 mins later they turned up we were sooo hungry as they didnt give us bread or anything. Chef must have realised it look ridiculous just 1 small piece of fish with soggy mash peas so he put on salad (with bottled supermarket dressing). I have never been anywhere i dreaded to leave, if not because i was with someone disable i would have walked out. Food was just ok but not worth the attitude. Particularly anyone could do that ar home, nothing special. Sad that they got away with it because they have a good location. ps. the other english waiters were nice

popped in for light lunch with family, hadn't booked but relaxed on the sofas until table available. Excellent choice of light or full meals available with good selection of wines. very good service, busy venue but still relaxing.

Very friendly staff and very good food. Comfortable surroundings and very good service. There is a good menu choice and the food is well presented.

The chef has worked at Blinis for over a decade and we have been lunching there almost as long as that. She never fails to surprise us with the 'specials' and today we were introduced to duck rillettes as a starter - a delicious first course. We chose buttered roast chicken as a main course although we were tempted by the monkfish tail wrapped in prosciutto ham. At this Festive Season the choice of sweet had to be brandy snap basket with Christmas Pudding ice cream. What a great feast - just off for a lie-down but not before booking for next week!

We went for a celebration lunch and my goat's cheese salad was delicious. My husband thought his battered squid was one of the best. Staff were attentive but not intrusive.

Yet another excellent lunch with my mother and husband. The specials are always superb and the standard menu is wonderful too (I can particularly recommend the burger). Fish dishes always cooked to perfection. All set in relaxed and pleasant environment, decorated with a nod to Art Deco. Great service and staff too.

I have eaten here in the past and found their food to be delicious. This time we just popped in for a drink and the service was quick and friendly. They even had a bottle of good malbec open behind the bar and so I was a happy bunny. The whole place is clean and warm and very attractive. Would recommend.

We found this gem whilst strolling round town and it is well worth seeking out. Decor is gentle on the eye, modern yet comfortable and relaxed. Very clean. Staff are great, helpful and polite but not too much in your face. Food was delicious and had so many mouth watering ideas it was hard to choose. As it was lunchtime, we went for something light... Warm goat's cheese on walnut toast with beetroot salad and caramelised walnuts for me, and my husband had squid which was cooked to perfection and served with slices of lime and a sweet chilli sauce. So tasty! Looks like it is a very popular venue for an evening meal too. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there and highly recommend. Prices reasonable - we paid around £21 for ours including tea, coffee and a coke.

It has an imaginative menu and there was no pressure to leave.It is very popular so it is advisable to book.

Popped in from the rain for lunch whilst shopping. Interesting light lunch menu. Prawn linguine with chilliest in white wine, very acceptable

This is a great bistro. Food is always good whether you go for full blown lunch or just a snack/coffee. Pleasant decor, peaceful atmosphere, friendly helpful staff.

Set behind / beneath the Royal York & Faulkner Hotel is Blinis Cafe Bar. Well appointed Lounge Bar serving a good range of snacks and meals, with excellent coffees. Reasonably comfortable seating, welcoming / attentive staff. Table Service, but pay at the bar. Lower ground floor position and nearby buildings restrict the view out at the rear. However, this is quite a nice hideaway for a break from the nearby seafront and shops.

To be honest didn't think Blinis looked very promising from the outside. However as menu looked ok we thought we would try it. Glad we did. Prompt service. Enjoyable food . Easy going atmosphere in pleasant surroundings. Pretty good spot for lunch. Plus sweet potato fries! Yum

Stopped here for coffee and cakes after a strenuous walk in the morning above Sidmouth. Coffee was served as I asked with an extra shot and cakes were fresh and tasty. Nicely decorated premises. Only complaint was that staff seemed reluctant to serve us only coffee and cakes at around 2.15pm.

We walked in at 2.15pm to be greeted and given a choice of tables to sit at. The waiter then brought all the lunch menus over to us before I could explain that we just wanted coffee and cake. He seemed a bit crestfallen and disappeared and there was a longer than necessary wait before another member of staff took our order. We ordered a cappuccino, a ginger beer, a piece of Devon apple cake and a pieces of lemon drizzle. Coffee and cakes really good. My ginger beer was OK, but the waiter didn't bring me the Luscombe bottle, he just brought me the drink already poured. Tired after a long morning's walk I chose not to question whether or not it was a Luscombe's or if it had been poured from the tap behind the bar. I was charged for a Luscombe's and would have been happier to see the bottle on my table. But I would like to return as the lunches being served to other customers looked very good. Plenty of magazines and newspapers to read. Very tastefully decorated with a full bar.

Found on the off chance , very good service , delicious food.... which made up for the disappointing weather, thoroughly recommended .

In the area during a couple of days , and the weather was not playing ball with wind and low cloud / rain limiting the options so we were walking around the town centre of Sidmoutn and could this place, went in on the off chance.Whilst we did not have a booking, they had a table that was not needed until 2pm and we could have this - great we thought Menu is very good both specials and normal - so we had one chicken thighs with green veg and one fillet of sea bream. Both were excellent - so much so we went for deserts as well, chocolate eclair and apple crumble again brilliantReasonable prices so a win all round thanks to the team

We wandered around looking for somewhere that looked Inviting for lunch finally asking a lady serving us in a gift shop for a recommendation! We were not disappointed. Could not have been better. The food was delicious and the service excellent!

Repeat visit after several months away. The lunch, from the short specials, menu was very good, the service prompt and the staff friendly and attentive. They handle special requests calmly and effectively

I always go to Blinis for lunch. Excellent choice of menu and comfy surroundings for a relaxing time with friends. The staff are friendly and the service is first class. Wish it was open in the evenings.

Called at Blinis for the first time on the 14th May, very warm welcome from the friendly staff. Plenty of room between tables, Good choice to select from. The food was well cooked, delicious, hot and well presented at a reasonable price. In fact we enjoyed it so much we called back again on Monday 16th May for another great meal. Will not hesitate to call in for a meal when next visiting Sidmouth. Our only regret is having visited Sidmouth for many years we never called in Blinis before.

Great size,good space between tables.Reasonable choice of menu,excellent quailty food.Excellent service and a reasonable price.

Had an impromptu family lunch. The food was absolutely fabulous. Service was friendly. A lovely lunch time experience. See you all next visit to Sidmouth x

Popped in for lunch and to say the least, it was delicious! I had the baked prosciutto parcels and my wife had the fish cakes. Both very enjoyable and friendly helpful staff. Will be visiting again soon.

We have been here on a number of occasions for a light snack at lunchtime, and up to now have always been happy with the menu, and quality of the food.However this time we were not impressed with the sardines, which arrived on a piece of toast and almost totally immersed in foliage. The sardines were overcooked and rather small.

We stopped in for lunch and were welcomed by the staff. The menu looked promising and two of us chose skate fishcakes with salad and the other crab linguine. When the dishes arrived it looked like there were two doughnuts on the plate, sadly there was little taste or sight of fish within the tough coating. So two enormous mashed potato balls! The small amount of overdressed salad was OK but overall this was poor value for £9.95. The linguine was fine with some evidence of crab. We have had good meals here in the past but this was disappointing.

We popped in to Blinis for coffee and cake, service good and quick. The staff are very polite and helpful. I would recommend this venue for coffee and a snack or meal.

We were taken by friends for lunch. The place was very busy good job they had booked. Very pleasant and helpful staff and lovely food

My wife and I have been weekly luncheon customers of Blinis for over ten years. We have always found the serving staff (Mike and Andrea, and before Andrea , Lucy) attentive and polite. They have created a relaxed atmosphere conducive to a good lunch.We have always found the food to be excellent and reasonably priced, although as adults, we have never attempted the smaller portions of the children's menu.

I am not sure what l should say about this place but l read the reviews and on all the other cafes l could find on line before l visited Sidmouth and decided Blinis was the one so lunch there was the order of the day.I liked Sidmouth a lot but Blinis was immensely disappointing for the money and don't ask for scrambled eggs without the salmon as you will only be given the childs portion without being told. My husband was given a small square of bread with all the ends cut off and just enough egg to cover the bread. Ok so that was breakfast really but scrambled eggs was what my husband fancied having studied the menu. I had something more like lunch but it too wasn't much of a portion but l accepted mine and it tasted ok. I was not however going to accept that they should dish up something so small for a man to eat so l made the complaint to the manager who said exactly this." Plain scrambled egg isn't on the menu for adults only children." Could they not have told my husband this when ordering . My suggestion is why couldn't they just take the salmon out of the larger portion. What is happening that managers are incapable of making executive decisions or could he just not be bothered. Won't even bother going back there even for the coffee in future. Plenty of other good places in Sidmouth we have since discovered

The coffee here cannot be beaten, especially when it is made by Mike. It may be more expensive than many others, but it is worth it. A friendly place. Such a shame that it is not open in January.

Great menue but make sure you book. Average price bracket, matches the style of food and the presentation not cheap but - all of which are very well done. little bit slow on the service but it was packed out.

Blinis isn’t the cheapest place for a coffee or a light lunch – but it’s well worth the extra coppers if it takes your fancy.The atmosphere is always calm and relaxing and the coffee good and nicely served.This time we returned for lunch. My wife enjoyed her goat cheese salad. My seared scallops with black pudding – scallops being a particular favourite of mine – were well up to standard. Recommended!

Visited recently with my friend for a goo gossip and a spot of lunch. The staff are friendly, the food great and choice of drinks good. Shame it doesn't open in the evening as we would visit often!

Pleasant interior, friendly staff and an interesting menu. A great shame that this establishment promised so much but was let down by the food.We had prawn dish and also a meal with goats cheese, they were both okay as far as they went but unfortunately they did not go far enough. The prawns were tiny and the goats cheese was virtually non existent !!! Not a place we would rush back to, strictly average.

Friendly cafe with good food whether it be sandwiches or something more substantial. Nicely located near to the seafront.

Great selection of homemade cakes,nice coffee served by friendly staff.The building is very stylish and modern and can get very busy.

Good food from an imaginative menu. Sensible prices, good service at a pleasant speed, and either a quick snack or a chill out longer stay. Pity it closes so early as it would be a nice evening venue.

We had lunch at Blinis for my Mums birthday and it was lovely! It's an unusual old building with some lovely quirky features and, as it was a sunny day, the sun was streaming through the windows - lovely ambience. The staff were polite and attentive and the food was great - perhaps a little on the pricey side for lunch but as it was a special occasion it was great. We all chose something different and it was all lovely. We will be back, thank you for a great experience
