Great place for cocktails and food. Some nice non alcoholic choices. Little expensive so would only go on special occasion. Excellent service.

Called here for cocktails for a dinner reservation and they didn’t disappoint. I had a strawberry daiquiri which was extremely good, the bar staff were very friendly and attentive, didn’t have food but the food we saw coming out did look good, would definitely recommend the place for a good cocktail and atmosphere. We called at around 1pm on a Saturday and the place was pretty quiet, we did walk past later on in the afternoon and was lot busier, also a good outside area for people watching!!
