Went here for the first time and it was a great experience. The house-made drinks were my main highlight, especially the pomegranate and chilli drink. The steak and the fish of the day were great too. The atmosphere was nice. Friendly and attentive service. I'd recommend this place.

Lovely food and ambiance but not to sound overly millennial but the acoustics were so loud!
WAYGOODResponded on 22 September 2024
Thank you for joining us and it sounds (no pun intended) like you had a lovely time. When we build the place from scratch 9 years ago, the entire ceiling was installed with acoustics paneling as that was a real concern going forward and have had very good experiences on our busy nights over many years, so sorry for your experience.
