    Great place hidden away downstairs. Lovely food and popular. Starter came quickly but we'd been there 40 mins before my main arrived (just after we asked if it was coming soon). It was a tofu panang and I skipped the tofu as it was too chewy which left me with broccoli, carrots and a few green beans. Still, it was tasty. Wouldn't order it again. Curry puffs were so delicious - melt in the mouth!

    Food was very good and thoroughly enjoyed. Service was slow in getting our drinks out which was disappointing. Overall, a good venue to catch up with friends.

    We booked a table for the afl final and had the absolute best time. The pizza was delicious, the staff were soooo friendly and when there was a delay on the food, the staff were so apologetic and really looked after us. This is hands down our spot for summer we love it here! We’ve been here a few times now and it never disappoints 💜😄 Special thank you to Sheree, the barman who recently had an ear ache and the guy with a spider web tattoo I’m sorry I dont know your names!
