   The food was very good, however we booked from 6.30 to 8.30 and we were suddenly rushed out at 8. A pity this way I am reducing the stars from 5 to 3.

   Reduced menu as they were focussing on Thanksgiving but OMG my rice and salad bowl was good! Lovely service. A moderate amount of noise but all reasonable. Will definitely return.

   Had a quick lunch with my teen son here. I had the roast beef sandwich, he - the fish and chips, and we each had a berry smoothie. Spacious, clean, and lovely setting with some vintage fixtures. Food was fresh, well-prepared, tasty; service - courteous and timely. Happy to go back and explore the menu further.

   We went here for Sunday brunch and really enjoyed our meal. There is quite an extensive menu - brunch dishes, a Sunday Roast, or more traditional dishes like fish and chips or burgers. It had a nice, buzzy atmosphere and quick and efficient service. Originally we were seated at very low table and chairs, but we asked to be moved, which wasn't a problem. I don't know how anyone would want to sit on such a low seat unless you are less than 5 feet tall, but clearly, some people don't mind! Overall, it was a great experience, and we will go again.

   Hi Tamara, Thank you for your lovely review! We’re so pleased to hear you enjoyed your Sunday brunch and appreciated the variety on our menu. It’s great to know the atmosphere and service hit the mark, too. We’re glad we could accommodate your seating request—those low tables do have their fans, but we’re happy to offer options to make sure everyone’s comfortable. We look forward to welcoming you back for another great experience soon! Best regards, Sarah

   Venue was nice. Service ok; told as soon as we arrived that we would have to leave in 90 min (but then the service was not very attentive). Shakshuka was not great - sorry but it was like a soup and was not sufficiently thick or tasty. My friend said his pancakes were ok but a bit overcooked. Unfortunately wouldn't return, which is a shame as the venue itself is lovely.

   Hi Melanie, Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the venue, but we’re sorry to hear the food and service didn’t meet your expectations. We understand how frustrating it must have been to feel rushed, especially without attentive service to match. Your comments on the shakshuka and pancakes are noted, and we’ll share them with our kitchen team for improvement. We’re disappointed to hear you wouldn’t return, but we appreciate your insights and hope we can improve should you decide to give us another chance in the future. Best regards, Sarah
