    We booked roof top bar to arrive and be told food would not be served up there due to staffing which wasn't overly a problem for us. We did order drinks and took them up as first time being at cold town house. Outside area beautiful heater if you are cold fantastic view of the castle. While up there a staff member Ben J came up and gave us the wonderful news that we would be able to eat on the roof top. Delighted as it was my birthday. From start to finish Ben made us feel very welcome overall 10 out of 10 for service. He was polite informative attentive and clearly understand how to look after this customers, which made our whole experience. We wanted for nothing it. We will 100% be back and telling friends, food was very tasty menu simple but effective good value for money the chefs know what they are doing every dish on point. Colourful and cooked well. Can't wait eat here again. First time impressions of cold town house food and staff impeccable. I would highly recommend anyone to go.
