    What a beautiful, well managed and presented space and offering. The food was amazing and very well priced. Small plates to compliment the fantastic and perfectly made cocktails helps to expand on the experience and with the opportunity to sit outside in the heated area under cover and smoke a beautifully crafted Cuban cigar from their large humidor or to smoke your own in company is fantastic. We will be back to support this fantastic business.

    This was our third visit this year. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. Lots of selection of cigars and whiskeys along with other wines, spirits and cocktails. Has a comfortable outside smoking area with heaters. There was a live pianist playing from 19:00. Able to make purchase to take away as well as consume at the venue.

    The bar, cocktails and food are amazing plus the staff and service are wonderful. However, the shape of the building makes a table for four or more inside quite awkward. The musician we listened to was an outstanding talent although, like all live music, it does make it slightly challenging to have an easy conversation. Small plates to share are the best but I would also love to try the tasting menu. A huge selection of cigars and whisky if that's your thing.
