    Service and drinks was great and nice venue. It was a quiet night so not sure what it’s like when it’s busy.

    I put one star; during the last weekend, Friday to Monday we have got two refused from this restaurant. For the first one I didn’t I’ve booked a table so it’s look like normal But for Sunday evening, I made a reservation on you app and then we arrived at the restaurant on time. The guy said that the kitchen is closed absolutely not normal. Also, the compliment of this guy was not commercial. He was like the fault was came from us. We are the customer. We have booked a table!

    My friends and I were there to celebrate Mother’s Day, we had lovely time, We had a delicious brunch, the staff was super friendly and attentive, after brunch we stayed a little longer having a few glasses of wine, the atmosphere and music were perfect to enjoy a moment with friends, the facilities were very clean and the place was big enough for any celebration, I really recommend that you go and enjoy a good meal or a good drink, you will not be disappointing.

    Booked for dinner with some friends and thought it was more of a Gastro pub. Was very pleasantly surprised - the food was excellent. Great menu choice and really high quality. Decor was lovely and overall restaurant was very comfortable with a nice atmosphere. Also liked that we could have dinner in the restaurant and then go downstairs for a drink afterwards, and the music was great in the bar.

    The menu was not the menu online -I had checked before I booked that it suited our budget and it did -when we got our table they gave us a different menu -which on average was €10 more expensive than advertised online plus this didn’t include sides which were around €7 each. I had planned on getting fish and chips at €22 but closest option on new menu was halibut at €34 And chips for €7 making it €41 almost double what was advertised online - I questioned the different menu but was told this was tonight’s menu ! For a new restaurant to be using a different menu already without any warning is disappointing . I had been on their instagram and was talking to them on the phone in advance and the new new menu wasn’t mentioned . We were so disappointed that we had to leave and will not be returning !
