The food was absolutely incredible! Everything was delicious and we really enjoyed our meal. The service was friendly but a little slow, I think it was a busy night and they were short staffed, it didn't spoil our enjoyment, it just took a little while longer. The atmosphere was great, lively and fun with great music, it was perfect for our occasion as it was a Birthday celebration. Thanks to everyone and huge compliments to the Chef once again!

We couldn’t make it as the gig we were going to was cancelled the day before due to covid. Tried emailing, messaging & calling the venue but no reply at all. Guess that’s £20 deposit gone even though I just wanted to move the date

No criticisms but a suggestion to say that the electrical work that was being carried out to the external power supplies & cabling to the external lamps, should have been done before or after service, not during service & around the occupied tables. Guy doing the work was very friendly & apologetic & didn't cause too much disruption, but the work should have done another time.

I booked a table last minute on Friday night for two of us. We walked in and there was no o W to greet us. We went to the bar and said we had booked an the barman pointed at the table and didn’t let us know if what drinks we could have for the table fee £5 per person and when we asked how to order it was back at the bar. The food menu was very different to the website which was disappointing. However the food we did order was lovely my friend is a vegan and there were options that she could have. The cocktails were also very nice and we both left a bit tipsy. It was a nice atmosphere and the music in the bar was good (we didn’t stay for the upstairs music) I will go back again however the service needs to be a bit more tentative.

The only reason for a score of 7 for service is not directed at our waitress who was great. We had booked the 1.5 hour slot which we understood (7.30-9pm) and were asked to move tables at 8.35 for another booking. The dining space was almost empty but we moved anyway. The other booking could easily have been seated at one of the empty tables, but they did not turn up anyway!

Fantastic time on the covered terrace. Food was beautiful and really good selection of drinks. Waiter was very accommodating and attentive. Only downside was our table was clearly above the toilets and we unfortunately experienced some bad smells now and then. Apart from that, a really nice evening out.

Visited on Saturday the 1st for drinks only,were seated straight away...staff were great, going around and cleaning once people had left...only complaint was later in the evening there was zero social distancing at the bar, not sure who's job it was to inform people but the doorman did nothing about this.
