Great atmosphere and view. Very disappointed with the quality of the Guinness, would expect a perfect pint at a flagship Diageo venue. I wish I had taken a photo of the size of the head on the beer. It really wasn't chilled as it should be

Good food, obviously good drinks. I could do without the lights changing every 5 minutes. But the setting was perfect and definitely got lucky walking in without a reservation. Felt like a place where you would want to have them. Be ready to be kicked to their other bar around 09:30. Not a bad thing but if you arrive near that time don’t get comfortable because you’ll be moving.
