Everything we had was amazing. We had the bbq pulled pork burgers, which were delicious. The chips were also insane. Every one of them was golden and crunchy. They even catered to my girlfriend’s pineapple allergy and cooked hers separate from everything else, and there was a little flag in the top to show it was to be separate. Beer was was very nice, and the Prosecco was amazing. Only downside was when our allotted time was up, we had to move elsewhere to finish them, but all the seats were taken and we couldn’t sit anywhere, and all the bars were full so we had literally nowhere to sit or stand. Overall 10/10 place would recommend to everyone!

Have had the bottomless brunch now about 8 times so i know what to expect ie standard and quality. The breakfast nachos for myself and daughter were burnt round the edges, then our burgers for the main course were really pink in the middle. Sent one back and asked for it to be well done, just wanted it cooked, didn't want to see pink. When the burger came back after at least a 20 min wait it was exactly the same, the middle looked raw. Complained again. Said i would forget main course, if they could just take that off the bill, and go straight for dessert as i was holding up the rest of my party. Manageress said she would waive the entire cost of the meals, which was a lovely gesture. Its such a shame, hope this isn't a sign of it going downhill. The waiter, well he was fab, our drinks were still topped up regularly but he was sooo busy, think theyve cut staff. Two tables along from us they also had to send their main courses back.

This was my second time to sound cafe for bottomless brunch. The value for money is outstanding. The Drinks are constantly flowing. No need to ask for a top up , they come round throughout . The food wasn’t as good this time as last , but it was very busy with Christmas celebrations and I guess that had an impact. My steak last time was outstanding. This time a bit dry but the value for money is unbelievable for what you get. Nice atmosphere, nice buzzy vibe inside the Cumberland Hotel. Only complaint is that one of the us wanted to pay the upgrade to cocktails but we were told it’s only possible if we all upgrade to cocktails. Seems a bit silly. Can’t really understand why it’s not possible.

We're on a mission to make every steak cooked to perfection, so we'll be sure to turn up the sizzle for your next visit! Here's to many more rockin' vibes, we can't wait to have you back for another round of brunch brilliance! Kind regards, Guest Services SOUND @ The Cumberland

Excellent service and food and drink were also great, Josh our server was fantastic and the added touch of a Robot delivering our main course was good as well. Would highly recommend to friends.

We had a brilliant time at the Smells Like Queen Spirit bottomless brunch. The drag queens were really entertaining and engaged the audience effortlessly well. We all enjoyed the dancing and games (scavenger hunts!) and our waiter ensured that our glasses were constantly refilled. Such a great afternoon of fun! The only constructive criticism from our group was that it would have been nice to have more than one vegetarian option on the menu.

Me and my husband had a great experience, we didn’t realise Sundays were Drag brunches but they were brilliant and we both enjoyed it, the food and drinks were good, we both opted for the steak as a main which we had to pay £10 extra but it was well worth the money, would totally recommend to anyone
SOUND CafeResponded 7 days ago

A good vibe, super bottomless prosecco, lovely waitress - Gabriele. However a few food issues - the meat/fish was served on same plate as the Vegetarian food. I didn't combine but should have really. We waited a fair amount of time for our food, but was offered a cocktail by way of an apology (very nice). Two sandwiches- macaroni cheese sandwich (!) cheese and pickle (very dry), three tortilla items no idea what the veggie option was though, then a cold churro, a milkshake and another one. A fun time but food disappointing.
