    Amazing experience and would highly recommend. I booked the table in advance, advising that it was my partners birthday - we were greeted with a glass of Prosecco which was a lovely touch to the evening. I also had pre-advised of an allergy (coeliac) and the table already had an allergen menu placed and staff were incredible. All were willing to help with any queries and ensured everything I opted for was gluten free. All staff were attentive and we were served quickly. Not one bad thing to mention!!
    The SharksfinResponded on December 3, 2024
