Food Quality
Pros:
"The smashed avo with homemade beans was delicious."
"The dirty bird, buttermilk fried chicken burger, is to die for."
"Food excellent, service not too bad had to wait slightly."

"Tasty food at reasonable prices especially for the middle of town."
"Food and drinks were great."
"The food was gorgeous and the service was fantastic."
"The food that we all had was really nice."
Cons:
"Food was stone cold but delicious!"
"I was just a little disappointed about my full English breakfast menu choice. 😳😵💫. It was dry and I didn't eat much of it."
"Chicken burger was beyond overcooked, with the strangest truffle topping that really didn’t complement it at all."
"Food was very cold and the bacon was strangely completely bland (?), one of the girls was unwell after eating here."
"Nice place, menu looked promising also. But just felt the food didn’t live up to what we expected."
"The food quality and presentation honestly reminded me of a standard Wetherspoons meal. Food does not appear fresh and was lukewarm in parts."
"I organised a birthday party for around 35 people in the downstairs private room. Great experience from start to finish."
"Unfortunately had the wrong fries (ordered the millionaire fries) delivered to our table (I’m a pescatarian) and was given fries with meat on which I accidentally ate."
Service Quality
Pros:
"Frankie was an absolute delight. He catered to every need."
"We all had our drinks topped up quickly and Evie looked after everyone and made sure we were all having a great time."
"The staff are lovely, laid back and friendly but attentive too."
"Had a very positive experience having bottomless brunch yesterday - had two fantastic waitresses who gave us loads of attention."
"Compliments to the kitchen team too because the food was amazing, and I can't do a review without mentioning our host Frankie who was just the best."
"The staff for our visit bearing in mind there was 12 of us were very attentive."
"Elliot our waiter was amazing!!! Amended all our problems with ease and made our night better."
"Mia was the best and the most helpful and lovely waitress I have ever had."
Cons:
"Food came out slightly slower than expected."
"Service was a little slower however the staff were nice."
"Need more staff working here as we had to queue up at the bar for our drinks whilst sat at a table."
"The reduced menu is rubbish. I come here regularly for brunch and the price has risen which was fine, however, now the menu has been reduced."
"We arrived and were placed in the centre of the 'standing area', clearly not surrounded by other 'BB-ers'. It was loud, we were not served for fifteen minutes."
"Went for my 21st birthday breakfast, Food was very cold and the bacon was strangely completely bland (?), one of the girls was unwell after eating here and the staff were generally rude and unbothered."
"Staff told us this happens every Sunday?"
"Service was a little disjointed, however other diners were having the same problem so just putting it down to a bad morning."
Ambiance and Atmosphere
Pros:
"Relaxed atmosphere, not pretentious. Can’t wait to come back."
"Fabulous place with a lovely atmosphere."
"The atmosphere was great; the music thankfully was at a perfect volume and the mimosas were tasty."
"The surroundings are lovely. A nice relaxed atmosphere."
"We did the brunch package, it was fabulous. Staff were amazing, really friendly and attentive and kept the drinks flowing."
"The downstairs bar with a room was a fantastic place, just perfect for 20ish people."
"Great brunch. Food was reasonable. Good variety of options to choose from."
"The music was way too loud. Only seats were next to the Dj and asked repeatedly to be moved but couldn’t accommodate."
Cons:
"When we arrived they had ran out of food that we PRE ORDERED!!. We were also told it had gone up from £28 to £36. Tiny portions."
"It's underlit for a start and, most crucially for a bar in the N/4, it's severely lacking in decent beer to drink."
"Despite the room itself being quite small (and a fair few of us turned up so it was quite crowded) it was a nice area."
"The only downside I would say would be the prices of the drinks and the size of the function room."
"The place is beautiful the waitress was had was amazing on brunch was best brunch food I have had but the drinks on the brunch was a let down."
"The whole place has a relaxed atmosphere and we didn't feel rushed (especially as we had quite an active toddler with us who didn't nap as long as we expected)."
"The basement bar was absolutely perfect for this occasion. We were looked after all afternoon by the wonderful Brie who took time at the start to ensure all the pre-orders were correct."
"We left really disappointed. It's a lovely venue, the beer and drink selections were good, the bar service was as expected for an established bar."
