“Scott has been walking my dog, Rupert, for nearly 1.5 years. He started doing puppy visits initially until he was vaccinated which he then joined the group walks. Throughout it all Scott has been amazing with him and Rupert gets so excited every time he gets picked up! The best touch on it is the updates via Instagram stories where I can see my little boy running around being happy. I highly recommend the value of the service for the price compared to doggy day care.”

“Can't recommend Fraser highly enough. Always get an excellent service. He's great with our dog who needed to be socialised properly after lockdown. Gave us some superb tips as to how to handle challenging behaviours, all of which worked a treat. Looking forward to a long working relationship!”

“Anybody who loves their dog will appreciate how daunting it can sometimes be to go away and leave your dog. My dogs are my babies and so when it comes to going on holiday, I will only settle for the best care for them. Fiona is fantastic. From the first time when she came to visit my two dogs, it was clear to me that she loved them and was going to give them the care and attention which they need. My two love going and staying with Fiona and Marley. I am always kept updated with a text message and the occasional picture whilst I am away on holiday which takes away the stress of knowing that they are ok. I cannot recommend Fiona more highly- My dogs love her.”

“The girls are lovely ! This was our first time using them and we would definitely recommend them. 5 star treatment was given to Poppy and Daisy , much appreciated !”

“Can not go wrong with this place the food is good It seems to get very busy and even sold out of pizza the first time I went so I had to go the next day. The pizza was very good and I would go again.”

“Eaten from here a few times now, lovely authentic pizzas like you'd get in Southern Italy, tasty toppings and great value. Garlic mayo dip is great with the crusts! Really glad to have this place in Davenport”

“One thing you can always be sure of; your food will always be cooked to order and arrive as hot as it should. I've ordered approx 10 times via just eat, once or twice via deliveroo and once via their own website at 2 separate addresses and accounts. The Deets: - The strong point of Nostra is their kebabs, i've only tried each of their variations of chicken kebab, and the shish and they always come juicy and flavoursome, only once was the chicken kebab dry. The shish is definitely among the best, and i lived in rusholme for 3 years; small cubes of juicy flavoursome lamb, chargrilled. - The salad always arrives as if it was cut that day, always impressed with how fresh it is - NEVER disappointed. - The kebab bread is thin and charred but actually very pleasant; not too heavy and soaks up all the sauce and juices. - Chips are on the cheap side, but do the job. Always hot and cripsy and have a nice potato flavour. but dry and lack potato filling. This i actually have no problem with and rather enjoy. - Pizza just basic really but again, always hot and fresh. Maybe light on the toppings especially if you order double, but for the price i can't really complain. - My missus always orders hot wings and corn if that means anything Conclusion: If you want consistency you have found it. The fact that even their chips always come hot and fresh, and their salad is always crispy and fresh says a lot. You will always get freshly cooked food even if the quality is not stand out. However, the actual star of Nostra are the kebabs since they are so unique and great. Do yourself a favour and get a shish or chicken kebab with mint and chilli sauce”

“Excellent pizza and side's with very helpful and friendly staff. They really put a lot of effort into the look of the shop and you can see everything made fresh in front of you. We'll done guys and galls.”

“Amazing Pizza! Lovely base and fresh quality toppings. Staff are so lovely. I ordered pizza for delivery within walking distance, because I was poorly. Put a note on apologising for not collecting, they sent me a 'Get Well Soon' Cookie! It really brightened my day and was super tasty. Thankyou! XxxX”

“Absolutely fantastic little shop. Outstanding food and deserts. Extremely friendly staff and a beautifully decorated place. Will definitely recommend to all. Will 100% be returning with the kids and friends.”

Thank you for such a wonderful first experience!”
