"O sítio é bastante agradável, sempre que venho a castelo branco venho aqui. O atendimento depende mesmo de cada empregado, estive aqui das 17 as 19 e pouco, o primeiro empregado um espetáculo o segundo deus me livre uma cara de enjoado e um atendimento de " eu é que te estou a fazer um favor". De resto nada a apontar. Parque para crianças ao lado o som de uma fonte a correr água, top."

"Excelentes tostas de atum e presunto. O pão de queijo mineiro com dice de morango é excelente. O Staff é muito atencioso. O som as vezes está alto para quem quer conversar mas resolve-se pedindo elas baixam. Tem uma sala no interior mais reservada para refeições, muito agradável. Em alguns dias e horários tem aquele público inadequado que fala alto, ouve música alta na esplanada e torna o lugar desagradável."
