    Had a really great first experience at Nor’ Loft last night. The lady who served us was amazing. Really extensive knowledge of the champagne on offer and helped us select something new that we’d never tried before and lived it. Will definitely book again.

    We were struggling to find it so cool to say we’d be a bit late. They were very happy to fit us in. My first time there and immediately fell in love with the place. The staff were excellent and we really enjoyed the cocktails. Pricey, but worth it.A great room with super views and a very relaxed vibe. Excellent disabled access. Would highly recommend. Didn’t have any food.

    Not our first visit, and won’t be our last. Superb experience, with a great atmosphere and fantastic views across Waverley station and on to Princes St. staff were happy to open up access to the balcony for photos! Surprise birthday chocolates were also greatly appreciated by all of our party!
