    The service was really slow probably because it was busy but the mains and dessert took ages to come out. The starters were really nice mains were generally not bad but lacked a little seasoning. The doughnuts for dessert were good but the brownies were cold and a little tough but overall not bad.

    The rosé wine was not to our taste and desserts were a little bit too rich. We were also required to pay service charge, which we found unacceptable. There was minimal offers and discounts that had a variety of options and were suited to us, as customers. However, service was almost impeccable and the atmosphere was outstanding.

    We booked online and when we Arrived, we got seated pretty quickly which was good but we got seated right in the corner of the restaurant which from the beginning and going into our meal we knew it was going to be a issue as we was away from everyone else. Food and drinks arrived in a timely manner but once we finished, that was where the issues began. The table next to us got their bill and that was it, no one else (staff wise) came over to take our plates away or even ask if we wanted more drinks or even pudding. We saw a staff member talking to a table and she saw that we had finished, even made eye contact with us on a number of occasions but nothing, didn’t come over. With no exaggeration 50 minutes went past before we decide to get up and flag a member of staff down and turns out they were just chatting to another staff member without checking on us which is so so poor. The restaurant was quite at this point so we didn’t know why no one checked on us. Being put in the corner was a massive issue. When they came over, we ordered pudding and decided to pay at the same time as we didn’t want to wait more time for someone to come over checking if we had finished and give us the bill. Over all experience - poor, will not be going back in a rush what so ever !!!! Advise - GET RID OF THE CORNER TABLE !!!

    Bills food was amazing. Our waitress Becky went above and beyond for our table and nothing was too much trouble. One member of our party (of 7) did not order a starter due to not liking anything they had so Becky made something different on the menu for her instead. We were all attended to promptly, they never rushed us and was fantastic. Becky was outstanding, she really deserves the praise. We had a lovely experience and great food and atmosphere for our work xmas meal.

    Pretty poor welcome on arrival. Food was below par also. Eg chicken on brunch sandwich was very overcooked and there was not much of it. Just a general lack of care in the kitchen and front of house staff forgetting what customer service is all about.

    I booked a table for 2 a week in advance. Won’t do this again as we were offered the worse tables in the restaurant. Other people just walking in were given better bigger tables and they were mostly in 2’s. I would have thought that taking the time to book would ensure a good table not those near the service areas or by the stairs. Waitress was a bit surley when we changed our table. Otherwise a good experience.
