    Many items on the menu were unavailable and we had to change our orders twice. Staff were not particularly friendly and we were surprised to be asked to leave 2 hours after being seated.

    Service was really slow, to the point where we had to chase up someone to order drinks is and then food. Food was pretty poor, we sent one dish back as it was not cooked properly.

    We had a superb waitress, the blood Mary and old fashion we ordered is the best we have ever tasted, the food was great too. The blanket down was an extremely loud, drunk party who ruined the atmosphere in the restaurant as you could hear every word they were saying. It ruined our experience. I think a manager could have sled them to keep it down ie moved it to the bar.

    We had such a great time! The food was amazing — I had the Patron Pepper and the Flat Bread Chicken, and both were absolutely delicious. Everything was super flavorful and cooked perfectly. And the chocolate fondant... wow. So good— honestly, the perfect way to end the meal. The staff were lovely too, really friendly and made us feel welcome. Definitely coming back soon!

    Burger rather disappointing would have preferred sliced tomato and lettuce rather than the chopped rather watery stuff underneath the burger.

    We went to the soft opening of the branch of Bluebird. I didn’t feel it was an improvement on the previous restaurant. Mainly the menu is not very big. The food was fine but not very different from before. The staff were obviously new but it was a soft opening. I wonder what happened to the previous staff who were good
