First visit yesterday. bar staff are all amazing, really couldn’t do enough for you and are really efficient and friendly. then food set up is is a JOKE. Order at the bar and COLLECT your own food at a grubby little gantry. This may be ok (not) if you are a couple or dining alone but there were 15 of us, all ordering separately and it came out like a buffet, nobody had a clue what was what Terrible set up. However the food that was eventually deciphered was top notch.
