Went for the bottomless brunch on Saturday, the venue had been hired out later on , but they still accommodated our party of 3. Good food , good vibes, free flowing Prosecco, super attentive staff. Highly recommend. Had a lovely relaxing afternoon .

Just reading these reviews. I did not write a review at the time as I hoped it was an isolated incidence, and nobody enjoys leaving a negative review in this climate. I see nobody has mentioned the smell inside the restaurant. As I walked in I wrinkled my nose at a smell that wafted over, I assumed it was a man placed near the front door. I was in a party of 4 adults/couples. We ordered drinks and the meze arrived ! it was a bowl of green dip and tiny triangles of cold hard pitta bread. Nobody said a word as this was a fun night. We ordered main course, I ordered the prawns !! in a sauce which read very appetising. Everybody was served and as an adult I said please start. People did slightly. Then came over again the terrible stench, I looked at the other female and we both mouthed " wind"....the males said no, its the drains. It was awful. I would say I waited a further 15 minutes for the prawn dish, the sauce was a dead ringer for a jar of Lloyd Grossman...by then we all started to speak about the food etc. The other lady got up to go to the toilet, was in there an age. I jumped up and went to the toilet as walking home. I can only say the contents of my stomach left my body, although not quite as as soon as I went to wash my hands, where I had flushed the toilet bowl was rising. I can laugh about it now. Then I had to sit again and my god I was in a state. Flushed again, and again it rose up. I did not say a word to friends until Christmas eve. As my husband and I started our walk I confided my story with " I need to go again" he said you cannot. I said I need to and I scoured alleys , bushes,,,,it was torture, He said, I will rush on, give me your bag, and off he shot. He flung he front door open and I made it. Hopefully the drains are fixed and the prawns are defrosted properly now. It seems so with all the great reviews. I do remember all the staff were attentive, and asked a few times how my meal was. And being typically British I said " fine". The truth as eating the food we all found it underwhelming.

Saw the reviews on this fish and chip shop so thought I would try it based on the top reviews, the food was very disappointing the chips were soggy not even crispy and the fish was so oily and completely soggy also when should be nice golden crispy the only thing that was nice was the curry sauce. Won’t be trying this place again was terrible.

Had the ham, egg and chips for lunch and there was only one razor thin piece of ham on the plate. It was so thin I couldn't even taste it. I think the management are very stingy to pass this off as a portion and I will never go back there again or recommend the place because of this. That being said, the broccoli and stilton soup was divine as was the dark Belgian chocolate tart. I wish I had have complained at the time now but I didn't want to spoil the occasion and the waitress was so lovely. This is all on the management to ask the kitchen staff to serve up such meagre portions of ham. A very short sighted way to do business in my opinion. What a shame.

Gorgeous venue, attending for a private hire, wedding do. The staff were fantastic, food was delicious and the venue is really cosy, with a great atmosphere.

I would not recommend. Food was barely warm when it arrived, it is far too expensive for what you get. The chips taste as though they have been microwaved to reheat them. We were missing 2 portions of chips from our order, rang them to let them know, they said they would get them delivered to us and it took them 45 minutes to get them delivered. The burger buns were soggy where they had clearly been sat there waiting. Overall very disappointing and definitely not worth the amount charged.
