    Small portions, over priced and the venue didn’t impress me at all

    Service and food was good. Catered for lactose intolerence. Decor was nice, but it was rather cold in restaurant which was a bit uncomfortable tonight.

    The food was great, the service was outstanding. Overall it was a great evening dining out with our friends. Will definitely go back soon. One negative point but didn't spoil anything, the bench seats need cushions. After 2.5 hours it was hard going on the butt :-)

    It was ok but not great- Some of the items were lacking flavour and seasoning and a little overpriced

    Totally Shocking After being told the main dish was sold out we re ordered and then it all went wrong. What appeared in front of us was shocking. We ordered a Lamb Skewer £ 9.25 which was broken in half, over cooked and served with a bed of dull salad. It was also so small it was now worth anywhere near the price even if it was served properly. My wife ordered a Halloumi and Vegetable Skewer £ 8.15 again shocking vegetables non existent Halloumi undercooked to say the least. When we raised these issues with a senior member of staff he said to quote...it is what it is if your re order you will get the same again. I wont charge you if you just eat it. Unbelievable attitude and he did agree the food was shocking. So never again for me, SO bad

    A skewer for a main meal is 1 small skewer, tiny pieces of meat on it we thought it was a joke when they brought it out. 2 people had the sharing meal £48 it had 3 different skewers with it but had to share each skewer so 1 and half skewer each on a thin bed of slaw and a couple of tiny bowls with it for £48. We were so hungry after.

    We found the service to be poor, we were looked after by a young girl who was clearly new. The food was kinda average, nothing was amazing all was just good enough I’d say. Wasn’t busy but the food took way too long to come out. No draft lager available, had to chase up multiple things that never came such as one of the starters and two of the drinks. The discount through TheFork was great however, I would have been disappointed paying full price!

    Lovely food with great service in friendly surroundings. Thank you . Will definitely visit again. A little loud with all the chatter for my daughter with Autism but a lovely atmosphere.

    Food was a little disappointing, meat was dry small portions. Lovely waitress called Katy she very kind helpful and assertive. Took care of all our needs. Well done Katy and thank you.

    Service was quick but too quick. We felt incredibly rushed. We were brought out hot starter before our cold starter was cleared. The tables were tiny so the high serving plates had to be placed directly between us which made chatting difficult. Hot and cold meze were good however the wraps weren't. The bread was almost cold so didn't wrap, the filling was luke warm. My lamb meatball tasted very weird. Restaurant looks great but on the whole I won't be rushing back
