    Fantastic first time visit. Service was exceptional. Honestly the friendliest and most perfect service we’ve received in years from any restaurant. Ferris was our main waiter and we collectively agreed he was amazing and wanted to make sure we had a great meal. Food was incredible. Everyone ordered different meals and it was all absolutely delicious. The meat was tender, generous salad bowls and whatever was in the broccoli hit the spot- it was super tasty. The garlic bread and hummus was insanely good. Highly recommend this restaurant for service, ambience and excellent food. Looking forward to returning soon!

    I managed to get a booking on my way in. The venue is lovely, staff were friendly, service was great and our waitress was very pleasant. Only feedback I have is the over use of phones where people are constantly taking selfie which is offputtinh but that is no reflection on the venue or staff. Thoroughly enjoyed our brunch.
