    Atmosphere was lovely. Food was average for the price you pay. Eggs benedict had hard eggs and hard muffin. Also charged £4 pound for plain mayonnaise after requesting garlic/truffle mayo. Was very disappointed when shown the bill after less than a hour and asked to leave the table to accommodate another booking(group). So 45 minutes earlier than we were entitled too.

    Loved the experience overall - staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. The ambiance is lovely, if a bit noisy due to the high ceilings. Decor is bright and fun. Food was good but could have been warmer. Main course was not as hot as I would haven’t liked and seemed to have been served in a cold bowl, or perhaps it started life in s hot dish but sat around too long?? Not what you expect for those kind of prices… Quality of good offering was good. Would possibly go again for a second chance.

    My main course of salmon and cod fish cakes with poached egg with side of creamed spinach was excellent but my friends minute steak was grey and tasteless. Chips were good. We both felt that there were not enough staff on floor and they were very rushed. This is second time I have eaten here and the first was much better. Enjoyable but could have been better
