                                                  We came here on a Saturday night. We were seated at the table. There were two singers who were pretty good singing contemporary songs and some old songs too. The cocktails are fantastic and made really well. Service was also great and the guys who served us were really friendly and smiley. I would definitely come here again in the near future.

Lovely guy playing the piano and singing which set the right ambience whilst we were eating. Food was delicious and we didn't have to wait long at all. Highly recommend and would definitely visit again.
