    Excellent service and experience with an extensive and interesting wine list- the live music was just a little overwhelming and loud which made it difficult for conversation Otherwise it was excellent and we hope to return when it is a little quieter.

    Excellent wine education experience with some top shelf wines and a matching tasting plate . My wife and I did the one hour “ sommelier experience “ where a very experienced sommelier talk’s you through the wines and explains each one in great depth and explains which foods go best with each . It is incredibly good value and you get to taste wines from all around the world, exploring each one with someone who really knows their wines . Will definitely go back again

    We had an amazing cocktail masterclass from Christine. She was very personable, knowledgeable and patient. The cocktails we made from the menu tasted amazing and were different to your standard cocktails. The grazing platter wasn't quite to our taste but was up for by the great overall experience.
