Cons:

• "Feels very run down. Food was obviously bought in frozen and reheated and did not taste good."
• "So had high hopes for this place. But Could have been so much better. Ordered lots of bits to give it all a fair try and as good as it looked it was a shame it didn't wow us with the flavours."

• "Food was rubbish. No flavour. Raspberry lemonade out of a can, and both meals we had were just completely flavourless."

• "Cocktails were very good but food lacked flavour and wasn’t very much of it."
• "Food was ok,didn't overly impress but it was nice enough. Portion size was big."
