    We come to Happy every year to celebrate my brothers birthday - he is Happy’s biggest fan. We ordered the Mr Cheesy burger and it was amazing. I got the raspberry kiss cocktail and asked if I could have vodka instead of gin but my server sold me this was not possible. We also mentioned in our booking and in person to our server that we were celebrating a birthday, but were disappointed that no one came to sing for my brother as they have done previously. He wore his favourite happy shirt and asked if the newest version was available and if he could have one for his collection. Unfortunately our server told us this was not possible. Our server also didn’t make us aware that service charge had already been added to ended up paying almost the same in tip as we would for a main meal with service charge and tip included. However the food, atmosphere and drinks were delicious and did not disappoint
