    We were so stressed because we were going to the theatre and some of our party would be late. Janet was so lovely and helpful and patient. She really helped the situation by being so kind. Food as always was amazing.

    Amazing food as always, I just wish that when booking the Experience menu, we could be put on a larger table - the tiny ones for two are so tightly crammed in together, people can’t squeeze past to get out and the table has so many dishes, crockery and glasses on, it’s too overcrowded for my liking. Overall though, a great meal and I love the fact the menu is changed often.

    Omg where do I start?! Staff on welcoming were amazing, seated promptly on arrival and not felt rushed. Menu was unbelievable so chose the sharing steak with festive loaded fries and loaded onion rings as our 2 sides I think was nearly enough on its own as the portion sizes were AMAZING. Staff throughout our dining experience were helpful and a delight to deal with all the throughout the evening dining. Would defo dine with them again and reccomend to everybody. Well done butterflies you have that place spot on couldn't ask for better!!
