    Had a couple of beers, spicy chicken and a chicken burger between us. Decent portions and the food was simple, hot and tasty. The spicy chicken comes in 3 levels of heat. I had the lowest, which was fairly spicy. Good luck to the masochists. We were seated in the upstairs section, which was good - probably a bit quieter than downstairs. Service was friendly and efficient. Good selection of draft beers.

    Absolutely loved it, staff were great, food was amazing and music was top tier! I had seen online the burgers were big but literally all the menu item portions were huge so expect to take home a doggy bag! I hadn't eaten all day and was well worth it for the quality and taste of the food. Also the fact they have accessibility option when booking shows they have thought of everyone, which my disabled Dad really appreciated. Will 100% be back and recommend to everyone looking for a good place to eat!

    I had put the noise level was moderate in the review. This was due to being sat outside. This is in no way a criticism as when booking it was only outside seating as well. Also before coming to the restaurant I was weary of being sat out side in a November night however they had outside heating so it was really warm I could sit outside without my jacket on. The staff were kind and attentive. Food was outstanding.

    Disappointing visit, haven’t been to bucks in a couple of months but my visit yesterday won’t have me back in a hurry, when food arrived one of our orders was wrong gave us a completely wrong burger, my salt and chilli burger was burnt on one end of it chips were soggy and cold, asked for more drinks but had to wait around 15 minutes for them to come, overall just disappointing and the food wasn’t to the standard it used to be
