    Although I’d been before and enjoyed my experience, this time I was disappointed. The waiter must have been busy as the service was not great. I order prawns and he served me with no wash bowl. In the end I had to ask. Also, music volume is far too loud for a bar and restaurant. Why would anyone want the volume so loud that 2 people can’t hear what the other is saying!!! Won’t be recommending I’m sorry to say!

    Wanted a varied menu near to our theatre. Definitely need to book as it was rammed. Very friendly staff, with a pretty loud backdrop. We were seated upstairs and although the noise was still prominent, we were able to talk across the table. Tamara C was very attentive and engaging and we didn't have to wait at any point during our visit. Hubby chose the half chicken with red cabbage and garlic potatoes - he raved about the whole thing (which is rare) - and I had the chicken caesar salad (very pleasant but was a little overpriced at £17 for a bowl of lettuce and a piece of chicken). We both had mocktails which was nicely served. Hubby had the banana split for dessert, which looked inviting and substantial. A nice fun place to eat, with great service and pleasant food at a reasonable price.
