Absolutely brilliant 50th birthday meal for 11 adults and 9 children. We had an area of the restaurant which was out of the way, spacious and relaxed (knowing the kids wouldn’t bother other diners!). The food and cocktails were amazing, and the service from George was first class. He took the chaos in with a smile, was super friendly and managed all the orders brilliantly. Will definitely be back and would highly recommend for a large group. Thank you George for helping make our day really special!

We had breakfast here on a Sunday morning. Very friendly staff, in addition to the lovely and cosy ambiance, made it a great experience for us. The breakfast menu has simple and healthy choices.
