    Booked to celebrate my birthday with friends, in the reserve did not say that I had only 2h30 knew when arriving at the site. The guy who met us was not nice and told us several times that we only had 2h reserve, I know that was complying with the rules of the house but I was attended by other people who were much better in explanations, said that it was mandatory to pay the service fee we questioned for poor service. In the end, when we asked about the last orders (drinks) she said that already was coming, followed with the closing of the account in a rude way.

    Went for my nieces and sisters birthday, 8 of us. The server had to of been new as everytime he took an order we had to repeat it several times and he still got things wrong, asked for blackcurrant for 2 kids got diluted orange, walked off with one of the cocktails we ordered, no cheese on a cheeseburger - could of been a kitchen problem. Wrong dessert for one the kids, kinda disputed the order, but changed it. Brought out the 6 year old birthday girls dessert with no candles or singing, she was so disappointed and then appears 5 mins later with a complementary ice cream with sparklers and sang happy birthday. Food was OK, nothing to complain about but nothing to compliment. All the issues were small but there was so many of them it was ridiculous. Asked for colour for 3 kids and was given 3 markers. I could go on more but sounds petty it's all of them together that made the experience disappointing.
