    Beautiful food, lovely staff but not attentive to getting drinks. Unfortunately very cold inside - definitely wear warm clothes!! Heaters or an indoor fire is needed

    Hi Kylie! Thank you so much for your kind words, we're delighted you enjoyed your visit! We’re sorry to hear about the delay in getting drinks and the chilly temperature inside. Your feedback is incredibly valuable, we’re also looking into ways to improve heating, so the restaurant is cozier. We hope to see you again soon – and a bit warmer next time!

    We had booked and were seated within inches of another couple with the large proportion of the restaurant devoid of patrons at this time. When we asked for a separate table we were advised that we would have our eating time reduced to 45 minutes, with no logical explanation. We chose this alternative and the person who reluctantly allowed this was heard and seen to utter to who would become our waitress... "These two are going to be trouble" Really ? What sort of professional does this?? After mentioning this to the restaurant manager who aploogized profusely, he sent the pepetrator to our table who proceded to expalin that he was talking about someone else. So .. al liar as well. The food was faultless however these actions spoiled an otherwise lovely experience. There was no discount offered or given for this atrocious behaviour. Go for the food - stay for the insults.
    North&COMMONResponded on May 18, 2025
    Dear Sandra, Thank you for your feedback. I'm truly sorry your visit was impacted by the seating arrangement and the comment you overheard. While it may have been a misunderstanding, I completely understand how upsetting it must have felt, and the explanation you were given by the staff did not help ease the situation. This is not the level of professionalism we expect from our team, and I apologize for the discomfort caused. The matter is being addressed internally. I will be in touch with you directly. While I know we cannot undo the discomfort caused, I would like the opportunity to make this right. Thank you again for your feedback. Warm regards Hitesh Sharma Restaurant manager

    Overall slow service, food was okay but nothing amazing. Restaurant did not give us enough time to enjoy mains prior to prison tour which was a package they promoted.
    North&COMMONResponded on May 18, 2025
    Dear Alarna, Thank you for your feedback, and for joining us as part of the dining and prison tour experience. I’m sorry to hear that your visit didn’t meet expectations, particularly in terms of timing and service. We aim to deliver a smooth, enjoyable experience for all guests, especially with our packaged events, and I regret that we fell short during your visit. Your feedback about the pace of service and the food is important to us, and we’ll be reviewing both with our team to ensure we do better. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope to have the opportunity to provide a much-improved experience in the future. Warm regards, Hitesh Sharma Restaurant Manager

    The food and location is one of the best I have witnessed . Downfalls being seated next to breezy doorway in winter. Wrong menu was offered in the beginning due to doing dinner and prison tour experience . One sided never arrived. One drink never delivered . Offered desert and never came back with menu. Also never advised us of tour commencement and missed part of tour.
    North&COMMONResponded on May 9, 2025
    Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We appreciate your comments and will take them into consideration as we continue to refine our guest experience. We apologise that items you ordered were not delivered and that we missed coming back to you with the dessert menu. The tour times for the Night Tours are stated on the booking details however, I understand that a reminder of your tour time would have been appreciated. We will certainly work on this for future diners to ensure that they get to experience the full tour. Luke Pringle Restaurant Supervisor
