• "However the table we had booked was in the main thoroughfare to the bar which made us feel instantly uncomfortable & there were no alternative available tables."

• "The manager was overheard talking about another party outside using the app as they were too lazy to walk to the bar."
• "Only negative was the toilets were a bit messy and outdated but that can be lived with."
