    We had a lovely evening at the Exhibitionist Bar before seeing a show The view is amazing and the service was great. I was a little surprised that the food was more just pizzas and burgers but they were nice. The Brussel sprouts were the highlight for us! We would definitely go back for a drink and snack.

    Limited menu but good food, there was a DJ and unfortunately we felt his music was too loud. The atmosphere if not for the volume was good as was the service.

    Wonderful food & service, nice view. Four shared plates was enough for 4 people. Music & conversational noise was VERY loud as we sat inside, a short distance to the DJ (his selection good and groovy and it's a shame no one had a little dance). People were shouting to be heard above the music. Would we go again - absolutely, but on the open balcony away from the very loud music.

    Thankyou to the staff who made our table of 3 arriving separately feel welcome and gave fast service due to a show at HOTA. when an outside booking was made, but the weather turned nasty, they had already moved us into a comfy dry booth inside, waiting for us on arrival! Great food, tasty, interesting and catered to a wide variety of diets, very crowded due to the event and all handled well!
