    Had a great night here. Good atmosphere, live music was brilliant. Staff were very friendly and welcoming and the prices are fair and what you would expect. Big thanks to Lia-May who provided a great service with the drinks and made sure we were taken care of when there. Highly recommend. Thanks to you and the team.

    Lia-May was our lovely server. Fantastic service. Really enjoyed our brunch and took great care of us. Food wise the beef burgers were great, the chicken burgers were a bit drier but overall good food, nice drinks and decent vibe. Would come again!
