    I had the vip deal, 2 for 1 drinks. I found the offer a bit misleading as it was only 2 for 1 for whoever purchased a main course meal.

    Loud.. between diners and music it's a bit much. Not great for kids. The food was ok, my double bacon smash burger was average, with sauce on one side. Kids cheese burger was average. Kids nuggets tasted like cheap frozen ones, I know they'll not be anything special, but they tasted bland. The servers were polite, but they were lifting plates etc before we had finished and kept lifting bits as we ate. It was irritating. As well as then asking if our kids were finished as one ate her nuggets and had chips left... really felt pushy and bad etiquette. Honestly, I wouldn't recommend it.

    Notice portions getting smaller and smaller to maintain price levels. Food still very tasty. Noise level loud and boisterous but to be expected at Thunder road. Don’t go for quiet intimate chats! Staff always bubbly and pleasant. Very enjoyable evening with family.
