Great food and location and atmosphere. The service was good but we think the waiter was new so didn’t really know what he was doing!

I went to Sophies for a Christmas night out with my friend. The place looked perfect for a Christmas meet-up. Our pizzas were delicious as were our cocktails. We had enough space around us to be able to speak to each other without feeling overheard. The place was busy but noise wasn't overwhelming. The best part was the young woman who was serving us. She was really friendly, accommodating, and had a good sense of humour. She made the experience so much better. I am sorry that I didn't take her name to thank her here. In a city that's overwhelming at Christmas we had a lovely night at Sophies that was relaxing and enjoyable. Well done to all involved!

Lovely meal but there should be baby changing facilities in all restaurants. I asked about an accessible toilet when I had the buggy and I was told there was none.

Delicious food. Great, friendly service. Our waitress was very good. Kevin was particularly good and a young male waiter who is a student was very good.
