    I have a very severe peanut a nut allergy and my friends and I planned a birthday meal for out friend. We’ve always wanted to come to this this restaurant. I was very excited because my friend went there and she told me that it was a really cool place to go. However, I was appalled by the way the servers were treating me. I told our waiter that I had an allergy, he treated me very disrespectful way, he belittled me and patronised me made me feel very stupid was giving me facts about cross contamination, even though I knew exactly what it was because I’ve had this allergy my whole life. He said and I quote “ If you had a reaction, you and your friends wouldn’t be traumatised it would be me and it would be the chef and it would look good on the company.” this was probably the most disrespectful thing. Anyone has ever said to me especially a server. The atmosphere was quiet. The decor was cute and the music was very loud. Food was average and I wouldn’t rush to come back again, but if I did it wouldn’t be soon.

    Appalling service from the moment we sat down, no one took an initial drinks order and this was then taken alongside food. Drinks didn’t arrive until half way through eating food. We were ignored throughout the evening and then had to ask 3 times to order more drinks. We did complain on the night, and received a reduction in the bill but overall the service was not what you’d expect from a restaurant with the reputation it has. Wouldn’t rush back in a hurry.

    I had my birthday brunch here on a Sunday afternoon. It was honestly soo nice. The ambiance is lovely, the decorations are very aesthetic & the music was great- we all enjoyed it. The food was great. Although the portions looked very small when it was first brought out, it really surprised us all because we were stuffed. The food was very filling and tasted very rich. I loved it, I ordered the pancakes with bacon from the brunch menu. It was definitely a 10/10 and I’d say very affordable. The service was prompt, there was wifi available, the whole restaurant was aesthetically pleasing & had so many good spots for pictures. 10/10 would recommend coming here.

    The food was really bad. And it came out very fast. The burger came and was two very small buns and was pink. Tasted awful. The cocktails were average. You could find better for cheaper elsewhere. The ambience and entertainment was amazing. Food was a letdown

    Service and entertainment was brilliant but me and my girlfriend both ordered medium rare fillet steak, it didn’t already come with chips but when it arrived it was barely cooked to rare nevermind medium rare. Truffle Mac and cheese was fantastic but unfortunately the steak massively let it down especially for the price of it without chips!

    It would be outstanding overall but when we finished dinner we were move to another table for more drinks by our waitress and few minutes later we were told we can't stay there by someone else and when mentioned that we were just sat there by a her colleague I was told sorry, you need to move and that's it. It wasn't a great ending to overall great experience.

    Booked the valentines set meal and interactive dining experience. The food came out so quick we hadn’t even ordered our first drink - the food was cold and bland. The “interactive dining experience” was what looked like one of the waiters swinging on the roof with his top off for 5 minutes at the start of the night and nothing else. I was expecting more of a show or something to really entertain us. The meal was £45 each which I thought was quite good for 3 courses of course until I actually received them, my prawns were freezing cold and had zero seasoning on with a tiny drizzle of sauce underneath on the lettuce. The steak was really fatty and we had to leave what looked like over half due to this. And the dessert platter was again cold and unimaginative, a couple of strawberries dipped in chocolate and some other random things I couldn’t even name. Overall not the best experience for a special valentines meal.

    We had a great night. The venue is nice, food was great and the shows / entertainment was brilliant. However, the highlight was around 11pm when the p*****d people take to the stage to “dance”. Great fun night only downside would be the service was really slow. 30 mins + for drinks 25 mins for the bill… food did arrive quickly and was fantastic tho!

    I usually love a night out in managerie, fab entertainment on a Friday and Saturday. However, this weekend we went on a Sunday night for some food and drinks. Sadly the food was very disappointing, we had the chicken burger sliders and as much as the pink bun looks picture perfect, it tastes of a strong perfume not edible. We also got the chicken lollipops and I was not very impressed with the grey chicken inside either. On the bright side cocktails abs chips were lovely and got some lovely pictures. Will definitely be back but not for food!
