I’d love to keep Fleet a secret just so I can always have a quiet spot to watch the people on the streets below as I work my way through their menu - both food and drinks. The staff make going to Fleet an experience. It’s more than a bar and the place you go to impress someone. If you want something different and quality over quantity this is the place to go.

Service from Jamie was great. We were sitting in a corner so it was noisy, sound bouncing from everywhere. Their “feed me” style option looked like good value. We chose not to do that as one person in our party just doesn’t. Food is kinda pricey if going a la carte so I would recommend doing it. All items we ate were super tasty! Cocktails were fun.

It was super busy. The service was a little slow. However once we ordered the food & alcohol we received it efficiently. The food was great especially the pizzas. Fresh bases & delicious toppings. A short 5 minute walk from our accomodation.
