We visited for my daughter’s 13th birthday. Food was great and the service was excellent. One of our children has food allergies and they were very accommodating. Noise level is higher than other restaurants we have visited, but to be expected in an open space and we weren’t bothered by it.

Zoe’s is iconic. Great job on the renovation and the lounge. Who doesn’t want to eat and drink at the Castle?? Drinks are actually reasonably priced. Service is friendly. I had the grilled cheese and it was ok. The fries used to be amazing here but now they are meh. They just re-opened today so I have not tried much yet. Definitely go and try it out!
