Sat at the bar this evening and had one of the best meals, I’ve had in a long time! The staff, service, cocktails and food was 10/10. The icing on the cake was leaving after an amazing experience, all the staff said the most kind words as we left. “Have a good evening, love you friends”. Left with full belly’s and warm hearts!
