January 2025The best bottomless brunch iv been to, absolutely class live music and tasty full Irish! Can’t wait to come back 🙌🏻

February 2025Cool vibe and chilled atmosphere on a Sunday night, Sam looked after our table, I had guests with me from Serbia. They loved it ! Sam's service was second to none, both he and front of house, Mario (the wine doctor) were a great at keeping us all happy.

February 2025Amazing little secret Irish bar with free, top class live entertainment! We went in on a whim and it did not disappoint! Old school vibes in the best way, all good vibes from bar staff, security and punters. Space and to sit and dance even on a Saturday but the perfect balance of lively and cosy atmosphere in here. Good drinks menu and food is available although we didn't try on our visit. Would recommend 100%

February 2025Absolutely fantastic venue I had the pleasure of Performing at Nortons on Saturday evening as part of my Irish duo, To Hell or Verona. The staff were fantastic, Dan, the events manager, Luke the sound engineer, and all the bar team and management were first class. The crowd were brilliant and friendly too, which made for a top class atmosphere. I’d highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a cracking night out with family or friends!
