Food not good. Overcooked and tasteless.

I always have a great time when I visit. Best marg I've had in a while - the bar staff are always really open to letting my try new drinks. Shout out to Sophie S, super attentive and always up for a laugh.

Stopped in for a full breakfast, which was amazing -- and then I got to make my own Bloody Mary! Usually I prefer to leave mixology to the pros but I got a double gin before adding exactly the hot sauce, spices, and garnishes I wanted. Perfect with breakfast.
