    Food took 40 minutes to come out we only ordered 2 meals. I noted items to take out of my Caesar salad because I can’t eat them but they came with it anyway. Lucky I’m not fully allergic to eggs. Didn’t have enough time to send it back because we were going to an event so just had to eat around it. Ate a quarter of it so definitely a waste of money.

    First time there a was not disappointed. There were 12 of us and every dish was very tasty no one was disappointed. Personally I had the ribs the meat just fell off the bone the flavour was very delicious. I would definitely recommend Sweethearts to all my friends and family.

    The food was ok but mine was very hot burnt my mouth the noise was to much couldn't talk when the guy was singing the table number 14 was small and cramped
    The Cinema CollectiveResponded on February 3, 2025
    Hi David, thank you for your feedback. Our food is always cooked fresh with a minimal amount of wait time possible - however we are sorry to hear that your food was too hot. Our live entertainment starts earlier in the evening on Fridays for post-work knock offs, however during the week our entertainment starts a little later!

    We didn't eat, Attended for duelling pianos, was enjoyable. However when we arrived the booth I had booked has been charged, disappointing particularly given I attended in person to confirm my booking and select seating.

    Had a problem initially as I booked for inside but you had me down as outside but eventually you got us sorted with a table inside which was fine.

    Not bad, though prices are a bit expensive for what you get.
