    Superb food and excellent service. The perfect start to the evening before going to a show. The best American diner food we’ve ever had. Super quick very friendly service, can’t wait to go back again. Great value for money too.

    Unfortunately we waited about 15 minutes to get served once we sat down but it was very busy, all staff were very busy. We waited a while for the starters but when I did tell our waiter that we had a show to go to and could he bring the mains at the same time as the starters he obliged and was very helpful and we got out on time. All in all good experience, food and cocktails amazing and staff so friendly even under pressure.

    Have dined here many times, food & service always good, tonight service was good but food definitely not up to usual standard, it was extremely busy, had a couple of issues with the food which were sorted out quickly without fuss, staff really nice Toilets are always absolutely awful, tiny & not very clean.
