Cons:

  • "The main turn-off was that there were too many tables squeezed inside so it was just extremely loud and difficult to hear the person sitting across from me."
  • "However this was a little difficult as the restaurant was VERY noisy; the noise level increased by a barking dog ! ( A dog in a restaurant!!! )."
  • "Tables were nicely socially distanced outside but unfortunately the pub is next to a very busy and noisy main road so it was impossible to converse with everyone on our table."
  • "It was so loud and 'echoey' in there that we could hardly hear each other speak!"
  • "The access to the toilets was very shabby after the attractive restaurant."
