• "Music was slightly too loud for my taste as it made it a little bit difficult to hear the people at my table."
• "What a waste of money waited a hour for food And an hour for one drink, they then had the audacity to try and charge the full whack for a bottomless brunch. What a waste of money, dirty cups everywhere. Floor is dirty. The music was on so loud. I couldn’t hear other people at my own table."
• "Music was way too loud if you wanna have a catch up with your friend haha, but if you wanna party it would be a good venue!"
• "The music was VERY loud."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "The cocktails were great plus and we caught the happy hour so that's even better lol."
• "We were able to order 7 drinks within the 2 hrs."
• "The drinks that they had on offer for happy hour were good, some nice overproof rums."
• "Not too expensive, in fact I would say reasonable."
• "The cocktails for bottomless brunch here are definitely worth it in my opinion."
• "For £33 a head (plus service charge) the value for money was exceptional especially considering we had 5 or 6 cocktails in that time (2 hours)."
• "The 2-for-1 cocktails offer is great value for money."

Cons:

• "It took around 40 minutes for the first one to arrive which took up a lot of our 'bottomless' time."
• "If we had not pestered the staff, we likely would’ve ended up having two drinks each and a meal in the whole two hours."
• "The portions where somewhat small."
• "The ribs cost more, but from my massive experience of ribs, this was a starter portion size, real tiny for a ribs main meal."
• "The portion size is scandalous."
• "The food itself was small portioned and not totally authentic. We were hungry when we left."
• "Considering the amount of alcohol you're consuming at the brunch I would expect a bit more food on my plate."
