    We went for the steak frites deal which is available between 4pm-6pm. Steak was delicious and we were happy with the value, although of course you get a little less steak than if you were ordering the normal menu. The service was really stand out- I don’t know how they recruit but everyone was brilliant. They had personality, were so happy and attentive and made the night really fun. My only complaint? We were a bit cold! It’s in a very old building and partly it’s the nature of it but when we went along to Brewdog after they said they often get folk who comment that. Wouldn’t put me off- I’d just wear an extra layer next time! I’d highly recommend a visit.
