    I'm writing this review because the service was outstanding and I would like the staff who looked after us to be thanked! We were the table of 3 women with a lady who doesn't eat sugar (except in wine, lol!) We were so well-looked after. Very grateful for a warm welcome on the door, then excellent service from the young gentleman who took our orders and other staff later on. Generous portions and a great meal, thanks.

    This isn't a place to go for dinner with your family. I think it's likely fun for drinks and bar food. It took almost two hours to get our food, which wasn't great. I had to flag down the waitress to get a second round of drinks and then again regarding our dinner after 90 minutes. The music is quite loud even on a weekday. It's definitely more of a party going scene versus an enjoyable dining experience.

    Great to find a place with lovely food and a bartender that knows how to make a cocktail. The staff were lovely, understanding and went out of their way to make my mother’s birthday special . Totally recommend

    Food arrived quickly but was tepid and by the time we attracted the waiter to request mustard and gravy we had nearly finished. We also weren’t able to attract anyone to order another drink so disappointing
