We stopped for a breakfast over the Bank Holiday weekend and it was lovely, can definitely recommend the smashed avocado and poached eggs on toast. Coffees were also great and apparently the Decaf Flat White is one of the best in the area. We didn't try any cakes this time but they looked lovely so we'll definitely pop in again to try.

Location is what really makes it unique though, great place to sit with a cuppa and watch the planes take off and land.

Once again we've spent a lovely afternoon at the Aviator! Fantastic food, great quality cake (especially the polenta cake I'd highly recommend it) and superb service as always!

My son had a fantastic time watching the planes come and go and making friends with the other kids playing outside.

I'm sure we'll be back in no time at all to sample a bit more of the menu.

Prices great but we were a bit disappointed that most of the menu was sold out today by lunchtime and there was very little choice on the menu for children. Food arrived quickly but we’d finished our meals before our coffees even arrived. Can’t fault the food and coffee but it seems to be a common theme we’ve heard from others that food is running out. We will be back though as we realise it’s early days. The wee one really enjoyed watching the planes.

Living near by it's great to pop in for lunch or a brew. If the weather is good it's nice to sit out and watch aircraft depart and arrive. The food is lovely although the menu is limited. That's not surprising with it only opening so it's exciting to see what will be on offer in the future. Maybe some music in the background to break the silence would be nice. I've been here 2 days on the bounce so it's doing something right �
