Amazing food, really enjoyed everything we ordered. Door staff very friendly and helpful. Waiting staff not so! Felt like we were putting our waitress out by just being there. No interaction or helpful answers to our menu questions. Despite the service being less than expected standard we still left a tip which was not even acknowledged.

Thought the service was very good, food also very good, really friendly atmosphere. Need to lower the price of the Chapel Down, I pay approximately £140 per case, and that's brut, the one for £47 per bottle is very steep. But it won't stop us returning. Loved the place.
