    Was told while kids were eating their mains table would be needed in 20 mins which meant wed the table for 1 hr 20 mins with kids who were having 3 courses. There was no way we could do that and we should have been told when we were being seated if they needed the table. V poor veggie option, fajitas were pepper and onions only for e25 what a rip off, couldn't do anything else veggie so there were 3 options on the entire menu. We ate in milanos the week before and think service, food and overall experience far better. Wouldn't be rushing back to thunderroads anytime soon

    Thunder Road is a beloved of mine when it comes down to celebrations. The food is always great, staff are always kind and welcoming, music is fun and energetic! I recommend anyone to come, if you’re down for some good vibes, yummy food + yummy cocktails. Ps, “Barbie” cocktail is fantastic, I recommend to the barbies that don’t like the taste of alcohol too much…it’s sweet, creamy and oooh, so good. Thank you to the amazing staff who accommodated 10 of us on a Saturday evening!

    Food was hard. Pasta was undercooked, chorizo was chewy, and chips were overcooked. Burgers & drinks were lovely. Servers were amazing. Got way too loud half way through waiting, and we said we would have left if we hadn’t had ordered.

    Great food and quick service with the red/white light system. If you don’t like loud music then maybe this isn’t the place for you but we enjoyed the buzzy atmosphere & decor xxx
