We booked the meal on the busy Christmas weekend for 6 people. The 2 ladies who looked after us definitely went the extra mile. We had starters and main meals all different. All of us commented how tasty, hot and well presented the meal was. Sorry insay hit as I feel lots.of restaurants forget that bit. Had a range of drink including cocktails. All 5* food. Well done chef and well done to your waitress they were great, had a nice conversation with then. Seemed happy to be at work. As I work in customer service its someone I look out for and these girls were brilliant with thier service.

We made the effort of attending after finding out our wedding singer was performing here - so not only did we get to see Amber live we also got to enjoy some tasty food & cocktails! A thoroughly lovely evening and a little gem. The breakfast menus looked amazing and can’t fault the service. They kept on top of everything, making sure we were comfortable and the food was very generous in its portion!

I came last weekend with some girlies for a bottomless brunch and we had a fantastic time. Firstly the service was excellent the staff were friendly and helpful, it was packed and they worked well as a team busy dishing out drinks and food and keeping an eye on filling up drinks and clearing empty plates. They worked non stop, I never saw them standing about and more so with a phone in their hands, well done. The food was limited to BB menu but plenty of choice. I with most of girlies had the Korean chicken burger and honestly can say best chicken burger ever, the chicken was perfectly cooked and the batter was like a tempura, light and not greasy or sickly, thoroughly enjoyed it with the great sauces they added. One girlie had the burrito and it was huge full of beef pieces. The food was part of the BB price but the menu showed the prices and the food was priced well and affordable. The Prosecco was really nice a good quality. The cocktails were good and not watered down with juice. I definitively would recommend this place whether BB, food and/or drinks. Thank you for a great afternoon, Cat x

Fantastic menu, including dairy free, gluten free and vegan options. Quite pricey in comparison to other venues in the town. More in line with the nearby Everyman Cinema than with the Iceland and Lidl on its side there side. Having visited on a number of lunchtimes, there has not been much of an atmosphere but evenings may be different. Staff has largely been friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Restaurant and toilets very clean and well looked after.
