Very lovely experience enjoyed the evening, didn’t have food but well worth coming again for the range of cocktails they have, loved them. Was served by Kat and she was lovely and a male waiter didn’t get name but overall very friendly experience

CJs - a very pleasant venue for lunch, I would certainly recommend it. They have taken the Covid protection requirements seriously so the place feels very safe but the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming.

CJ's is one of our favourite places to eat and drink. The menu is understandably reduced upon re-opening but the food and service was still excellent. Lovely to be able to go there again now that lockdown restrictions have eased.

CJ's has always been our favourite local wine bar, ever since it opened. Our recent visit was for Chris and Julie's re-opening post lockdown......and we weren't disappointed. Even with the enforced restrictions, the atmosphere and ambiance were perfect. We felt relaxed and looked after as usual. We had a lovely evening....well done guys....cant wait to see you again very soon

Disappointed the Staff did not recognise my reservation. In fact I received the email confirmation a day and a half after the reservation itself.! Staff eventually fitted us in by moving other customers to a different table. Waiter Riley was excellent and assisted us to be served quickly as we were running against the clock.
