Very loud! Turned up and found there was some kind of quiz night on, overseen by a guy dressed in britches, shouting over everyone's tables (whether they were taking part in the quiz or not). Service a little slow, and the general atmosphere was pretty drab, considering the almost overly-anxious attempts by the MC. Fair enough place if it's a local, but not worth coming from any great distance.

Staff were amazing, but they did seem understaffed. Everyone was as helpful as possible but bar staff didn’t seem to know all of the cocktails on the menu (a picante for example). Overall amazing experience and can not praise the staff enough, the music was great and everyone had a brilliant time

We arrived to be put in a noisy table inside. The lovely manager moved us to a much more suitable table outside. He was very kind. The food was lovely, and good value and the live band was super (from outside with windows open). Service was average, quite slow and had to keep asking for things, such as napkins, cutlery and the table to be cleared and wiped before ordering dessert. But food was great and would go again.There were 6 of us there for my sons 25th birthday.

Free parking at Sainsbury's for two hours is a great start - perfect for brunch! Great coffee and very good portion sizes. Extra star would have been available if there were more vegan options.

We both had the Malaysian curry, one with chicken, the other with tofu. The chicken one was ok but mine was pretty bland with fairly watery sauce. Tasted like a curry sauce from a packet or jar that had been watered down - so hardly spicy at all, which was a shame as I have been really missing hot curries over lockdown! Their version of Eton Mess was lovely though and the service was very friendly and breezy.

Had very tasty steaks with an incredible mac and cheese. They gave us blankets as we were sitting outside which made it doable on a freezing November night! They do have some heaters outside so I would recommend asking to have a seat under those.
