    I am all fir a laugh in a good environment- but - my seven friends and I could barely hear ourselves talk it was far too loud by anyone's standards. The flashing lights that went straight into your eyes even 43 seconds was extremely off putting and this completely spoiled what was supposed to be a great night out. Thevstaff were excellent and god help them having to work in a place that is the best example of noise and light sensory overload. Really really regret making the booking and will certainly not be going again due to the nise amd light chaos!!

    When the food order was ready it came out at all different stages we had to ask twice for the kids food and another part of an adults order. Wings were cold. No mocktails for the kids we were told they had ran out!! Surely its just juice.

    Food service was not great, food did not all come out together. Ordered the Wings and chips both came out like 5-10 mins apart. Partner got the Ceaser Salad and house chips. Chips came out and had to wait about 5 minutes for the salad to come out by that time the chips were cold. Chip portions are poor and scabby.

    The staff were extremely nice. We were caught in traffic and some of us arrived late. The staff were so nice and helpful and didn't make a big issue. They were very fast and efficient and we were on time of the theatre. The food was delicious was very well priced for what we got. We will definitely be back.
