We had a fantastic time for my 30th birthday. Our server made everything special for us. The pepperoni flatbread sharer was delicious as were the mains. We’ve been to several hard rock cafes and the atmosphere is just excellent.

Great food and friendly service. We had a baked Camembert to start with and baked cod with white beans for main. The only reason for one star less is that the profiterole could do with more chocolate, but this is a personal preference. I have been back on numerous occasions and this place never disappoints.
