Decor and Atmosphere
Pros:
"The decor at Cosy Club is nothing short of exceptional; it effortlessly marries rare elegance with a comforting homely touch."
"A fantastic venue. Feels like such a privilege to be able to enjoy such a building. Relaxed and atmospheric."
"Beautiful building and ambience."
"It's an old grand hotel room very beautifully decorated."
"Brilliantly designed interior and a very good vibe."
"The atmosphere feels like you've been transported to the 1920s with decor and staff dress."
"Elegant, beautiful building that's furnished for comfort. Settees and comfortable chairs."
Cons:
"The dining area has a tall ceiling so it can get rather loud."
"The building is beautiful but is so loud when its even half full mainly attributed to the furniture selection and the use of blinds on the huge 5m high windows rather then drapes."
"Atmosphere too dark and laughter. We can't even heard was the server was saying."
"Went for my birthday in the evening, could have been because it was a busy bank holiday sunday night but my main concerns were it was very loud, you couldn't hear yourself think over the music."
"The dining room was unbearably HOT, we all soon couldn't wait to leave."
"Only down side was the heat, maybe investing in some air conditioning may be an improvement."
"I imagine some people may find the cavernous dining room, with it's high ceilings, a little too noisy and lacking in intimacy."
