Atmosphere

Pros:

• "The restaurant itself also has a great atmosphere it’s cosy and modern."

• "Lovely inside, nice and clean too."
• "The open kitchen with a big burner is fantastic also."

Cons:

• "The place was virtually empty at 6.30 pm."
• "There was a broken drain somewhere when we visited. The smell of raw sewage rather spoils the experience no matter how good the food was."
• "They saw us (a group of black couples) reading the menu outside and rushed to come tell us with a stern look on the face that they are fully booked for the night."
• "Atmosphere was cold and felt like there was no love."
• "There's not atmosphere unfortunately."
• "Glanced round to see kitchen staff and serving staff talking and laughing. Left without eating."
• "A little bit of a weird smell in the place we were seated."

Pricing

Pros:

• "The children's portions are amazing value for money too!"
• "All in all reasonably priced."

Cons:

• "Did not appreciate the forced 10% tip."
• "Only reason its a 4 instead of a 5 is because of the forced 10% tip."
• "A 10% service charge is not something I am comfortable with."
• "Ordered were 1×small (VERY SMALL) glass of prosecco at £5.95 and 1 x Leffe blond (330ml) at £4.35 - this is the price I would normally pay for the 750ml bottle."
• "£6.75 for a pint is ridiculous too."
• "When the bill came they had added on the complementary drinks."
• "10% then added to the bill unexpectedly for a service charge that clearly wasn't deserved."
