Went to the place with 15 people. We were spending money the whole night. They decided to kick us out saying that we had a time limit. Absolutely ridiculous.

Wednesday lunch special was fantastic. $5 pizzas (for small/regular and $8 for large) and $6 wines unbelievable. I had the large bbq chicken and my friend had a small Hawaiian- both Mary happy with the food. Very quiet so we could chat easily - music in the background non-intrusive. Definitely go back again.

i really wanted to enjoy this place. I had booked for 9 pm. we weren’t seated on our booking reservation and then we got moved to a crowded place. When I specifically asked for a quiet place. The security guard was very rude and arrogant. The manager was very nice and had moved us to a quiet place after people had left which was very nice and the food was lovely, but the security guard was very very appalling

We went for happy hour on a Sunday night specifically for pizzas and beer towers. Beer was ordinary, not many varieties, pizza was yummy and cheap. Service was quick. Love being able to select a song via an app.

We have used the VIP area several times now for random company get togethers, and will do so again. Ideal for the team to get together, drop the laptop bags in one corner, bond, laugh and have fun before heading just downstairs to the trains to get home -all so convenient. Always specials running on drinks and food which is very popular.
