   Service was a tad slow, took a while to get our drinks. Chocolate pudding was 95% sponge & managed to charge us for 3 meals for 2 people. Refunded after I complained.

   I do like rooftop gardens overall but I’ve booked a table for bottomless brunch on a Sunday and I have been advised that it’s not a thing.. it shouldn’t let you book it if it’s not a thing. Very disappointed as I was looking forward to it so much.

   Half the food was cold and service was lacking, no one checked in on us, felt like we were forgotten about. Waited 30 mins to get plates cleared.

   The service was great and so was the food. Staff were very attentive and the sun was shining so what more could you want

   One meal incorrect to order, others swimming in sauce and oil, not enjoyed. Not a good experience, despite discounted bill.

   Rooftop Gardens is a great location, over looking the Norwich Skyline and perhaps you'd want the ambiance to compliment a special event but unfortunately, on this occasion, we found it sadly lacking. A group of four of us went at 6.30pm for a Saturday night table booking. Taking our cocktails outside onto the terrace, we found the music was loud and edgy rather than ambient and pleasant. A group of girls had been there all day making the most of the 'Bottomless brunch Offer' and they were loud, sweary and drunk so had to be asked to leave by staff (which they didn't take too well). Inside, there was a hen party (fair enough, I guess) but around the bar there were girls again, a bit drunk, a bit loud, wanting cocktails. The table behind us had a couple, swearing quite aggressively at each other. The vibe just wasn't what we were expecting and it didn't feel relaxing. We've been to the Gardens in the past, last year in fact, and it was really nice. This time, we were entertaining friends from abroad and it was disappointing. The demographic felt different and so did the atmosphere .

   Disappointing evening. Service was reasonably quick, waiter insisted in calling us Miss or Lovelies, 2 ladies of advanced years - creepy, don’t do it . Food was grim I had a pork and clam dish. Pork was dry and tasteless, potatoes were searingly hot but raw, cold pickles dumped on top of the food. Friend’s medium rare steak was still mooing. Waiter unfazed about removing untouched food. To cap it off he messed up the bill.

    Terrible experience. Feel forgotten. 1hr 5 minutes until order taken. Not that busy. Main meal came. One slice of beef - to say it was warm is being kind. I wouldn't return again!
