    I booked a table in the BirdCage room however on arrival was told the new owners were using the room for meetings. Therefore our group were given a table in the extremely noisy main room.

    We ordered two meals, one was ok but the second was disappointing. The chicken was over cooked & dry and the sauce had too much garlic added, unfortunately I couldn’t finish the meal. Drinks are over priced.

    Food was amazing, staff uninterested in serving, meant to be table service but just stood manning the front desk rather then coming to take orders.
