Called in on a Friday afternoon to take advantage of the January special of 50% off food, We were the only 2 in which seemed strange and thought did people know something we didn’t about this place! We ordered drinks and 3 of their small plates to start, the pardon peppers, chicken & chorizo skewers and the sourdough bread they were excellent and well presented, we then ordered the burger and the Korean chicken flat bread both again excellent, by this time the place had started to fill up and the atmosphere was good. When the bill arrived there was a service charge which worked out around 15% and to around £9.00 the server said it could be removed we asked the server if they got it or it went to the restaurant, she said they got it so we paid it as we were going to tip them £5.00 anyway as they were so nice. The service charge is not stated anywhere on the menu which may cause confrontation from some customers. All in all a good experience and a bonus with the food discount.
Four of us called in for lunch. We all had burgers which came with chips. Freshly cooked to order. The staff were very attentive and friendly. The meal was too large for two of us was quickly packed in foil trays to take home. Not much atmosphere as it was on a lunch time . It was clean and tidy. The only thing I could say was it was a little chilly . At the moment 50 per cent off or two for one on burgers Monday to Wednesday so definitely worth a visit
Walked in no booking but seated very soon, shared a steak sandwich, fried and drinks . Great service and delicious food, steak cooked perfectly. Ambience ok, but areas of light and dark and very echoey, just a not for anyone with autism issues. Dark stairway and dark walls to facilities. But excellent service and food x thank you to the young lady who served us. X
Steak I ordered was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Service is at the bar, but took a while to clear the old dishes off our table, the server was trying her best! Standard bar atmosphere inside.
Nice place for a drinks or we didn't have anything to eat but it looked nice
