We came here on a Saturday night as a group of 8 on holiday. Street Food section is nice, quick and fast. Bistro chicken schnitzel was well overcooked. Some people on our table got their orders quick and some had to wait way too long. Cocktails on tap are not good but you can get the real deal at the other bar if you want, which Is what we did. The staff at the club are very lovely and helpful. The courtesy bus guy was not overly courteous, not sure why when he was 30mins late to pick us up. We booked for 5pm and were picked up at 5:30pm. Maybe this should have been explained when booking that this is a “fluid time” not a hard pick up time.

The menu is old and tired. Most of the food was ok however one guest steak came out with the butter disk melting over the steak. We took it back and was presented with a cold butter disk, not melting and steak lukewarm. We had to take it back to counter and request a different meal. Yes it was busy but someone should be checking what goes out. The manager was happy to refund and reorder and made sure the new meal was up to scratch. Sadly this isn't the first time this has happened to us.
