I booked for a small group of us to have a meal and drinks, because I’ve been before and loved the food. Unfortunately, due to numerous large parties it took over an hour for food to come and no one had informed us there would be a delay. We understand it happens but we were starving, no appetisers or even just some nibbles were offered. The food and drinks were great when they came, it was just a little overlooked this time with service and communication.

We did the bottomless brunch and had a fantastic experience. The service was amazing and really made the whole experience superb. The food was great, the quality and variety of the drinks were excellent for a bottomless brunch. Everything arrived quickly, and the staff were attentive and efficient throughout. Great value for money and we would definitely be back!

Staff were incredible, food was lovely, cocktails were amazing. But there is a funny drain smell there.

A group of 12 of us booked a table for cocktails and we had a lovely time. The cocktails were lovely and the service was great. We will definitely be back to try the food.

There was 7 of us for birthday celebrations for myself and my partner. We did the bottomless brunch. The excuse of we are over booked so that’s why we are delayed with serving wasn’t what you want to hear. Every drink we had even though we had the same drinks, everyone was different in taste and flavour, they weren’t enjoyable. Then upon receiving the bill trying to add on an extra £30 saying we upgraded our cocktails when we didn’t and having to have the manager come over and remove it. The food as well, two tacos, which weren’t very nice can I add, we have had a better service elsewhere for a bottomless brunch and get more for less money. Unfortunately we will not be returning.

A lovely venue with excellent value for money. Charlotte was an attentive server and we all had a nice time. The only negative was the size of the tacos but we all enjoyed ourselves.

We found the service extremely slow, we waited about 20-25 mins for a pint & a glass of wine. I would understand if we had ordered cocktails. The food was not great either, there was no flavour on the chicken wings, coleslaw was very random, beef loaded fries were nice but all basic frozen food that was served lukewarm nothing special at all. Very disappointing indeed.

Rachael

Good food and great service, Unfortunately the restaurant was not busy so it lacked atmosphere and the air conditioning made the restaurant cold which also caused our food to be cold

Heather

Group of 10 for bottomless brunch. Service was excellent, very attentive staff and the drinks were excellent. The only very small negative was the portion sizes of the tacos were very small . We needed to order extra food to fill us up which ended up costing quite a bit more .
