Booked a table for a girls night out 7pm-9pm, the band were really good, the DJ between sets was also really good! Just a really good vibe, couldn’t fault it. Service was great too. Very aesthetically pleasing! Would definitely recommend and go back.

seven of us went for a 50th birthday party and we had a good time. The life means it was nice and the volume wasn’t so loud that we couldn’t speak to each other. The service was great and the drinks and cocktails were lovely. There was a slightly stilted vibe with the staff, and I asked the DJ if he would play an old R&B/rap tune and he just said no which I thought was a bit rude
