January 2025Fabulous location, views, decor. The staff were so cheerful, friendly and helpfull. Its the first time i've ordered a chicken curry and the chicked arrives in a batter. I dont care for deep fried, battered, food so they lost a star for not calling this idiosynchracy out on the menu.

January 2025Had lunch there, £7.95 and £1.50 for fries. Chose of kebabs with dip, humas and pitta bread. Lovely. Lovely view over the bay, plesent music. Highly recommend. The belly pork kebab to die for.

April 2025We had the kebabs and hummus starter. The food was phenomenal. Creative presentation’s and delicious. The atmosphere is beautiful. Light and airy; certainly leaning into the theme with hanging plants and decor. We came mid dinner rush but found timely and pleasant service; helpful staff; accessible washrooms and plenary of vegan friendly options on the menu. 100% would visit again.
