    It was a lovely restaurant and the staff were super kind but the food was a bit disappointing. I’d go back for their brunch but not for dinner.

    The restaurant was fine but it turned out the Itison vouchers did not cover tea or coffee. This was poor and it showed us we need to read the small print.

    Lovely atmosphere and great waiting staff. Food was a bit disappointing. Menu is a bit strange. Some of the portions were huge for starter. Chicken satay sauce was not great and salads a bit tasteless.
