    We were sat at a great table and loved the decor. While waiting for the rest of our party to attend they offered us to order something while we wait. 2 members of our party were unable to attend which the staff didn’t mind and they checked/chatted with us in such a relaxed, friendly way.

    I wouldn’t normally write a review but this was the BEST food I’ve ever eaten. The beef skewers and crispy chicken skin were particularly nice, but overall we couldn’t fault a single dish. The guy who served us (possibly the owner or the manager?) was really friendly and attentive.

    I am gutted to say that our experience at the restaurant was hugely disappointing. Myself and my two friends were together for the first time since last year. We were, indeed, excited. However, we were treated as drunks, told we could not order alcohol and that we were too noisy. As someone who is a massive supporter of the industry, I have had my fair share of run ins with customers whose behaviour is disruptive. I do not believe we fell into this category and I was gobsmacked to be spoken to in such a condescending manner. The food was fine but we ate and left as soon as possible as we were made to feel so uncomfortable.

    While the food quality is reasonable, value for money is extremely poor. We spent £30 on food and felt like we'd had a starter.
