Lovely food and very nice presentation. Meat tender and my dish was just right.
Only negative I would say table way too small. Unable To but my bag and phone anyway so had to place on another empty chair if your a big person or guy may be a problem. Bit too close to other members of public but again it's because the venue is little small. But very hard to change due to the size of place.
Did call up in the week to confirm booking and say can a cake be provided with a candle as its for my friends birthday. But unfortunately never provided and didn't feel comfortable asking again. Plus was in my special request when made the booking online.
I travelled from hounslow and would come back but not for a while. Thanks again just few attention to details required. 😋

Had a great time, food and music really great. Sundays are a Sunday roast which is a fusion of classic English roast done in a West Indies style. Classic mix that we all loved. Staff were brilliant.

Large portions of delicious and authentic food, and friendly service. Would recommend.
We went for the Sunday roast, we sat down and a server came to us. We weren’t ready so she went away. About 10 mins later we were ready to order to only be told they’re not serving the roast. Wish we were told upon arrival or when the waiter initially came to greet us.
