Great spot for some lovely cocktails. Vibe and venue is superb. The cocktails that we had were all very good (I'd recommend the Snickers Old-Fashioned) and served by very knowledgable bar staff who were attentive throughout the night. I'll definitely be back.

We went as a party of 10, including 3 children. The maitre immediately suggested the special dishes for the children (burgers) which was very much appreciated. Food was excellent, if rather pricey, but the service was very slow - much slower than we had experienced on the couple of occasions when we had eaten here before. Ambience was good - we were very nicely seated at the far end of the restaurant, but the noise level was still quite high.
