With two colleagues I decided to have a spot of Lunch at The Gourmet Pizza Company at Gabriels Wharf. We arrived at around 1pm and the place was busy with local business people, tourists and children alike. The restaurant is a large wooden hut affair with outside heating and a covered deck area which proved to be a good idea because the temperatures certainly dropped today. We had a little wait while a table came free and eventually sat down to beautiful paper napkins. We ordered up our food. I went for the chicken and spinach pizza and a bottle of sparkling water. The water was served up in a peroni beer glass and there was no offer of ice. The pizza was served up freshly cooked but the base was very hard indeed. I can’t be sure as I could not see the kitchen from where I sat, but I would guess that the bases are ready made. It was pleasant enough, but nothing special. More designed for the tourists who are unlikely to return as opposed to the people who work locally.
The service was quick and friendly though and we were generally happy with out lot. For the three of us the total cost was £36.
Pryordurkin rating. 2 Stars.
