Thank you! We had a fabulous party on your 1st floor! A perfect evening! Norbert and his staff were amazing and looked after us all evening, all went to plan! Pre party planning communication was excellent (thank you Georgie). Our guests all loved the food, venue and location, so convenient! We are planning another family party already!

We were attending for welcoming drinks for a colleague. We were a bit earlier for our booking but the bouncer was great, polite and allowed us to stand out the front of the venue until our table was available.

Had a really nice time! Service, food and people are exceptional! Thank you to Naomi for the drinks she’s lovely and always smiling:) Staff and management are great, highly recommend coming here for a night out, after work drinks or for anything in general!

Visited this place 2 days ago. The atmosphere was lovely, and even though the terrace was full, inside, the AC was on, so it was pleasant. As the place has many options for drinks, and I struggle to decide, the waitress helped me by suggesting few drinks. The waitress made the experience very pleasurable as she was friendly yet professional, making small chat. Her name was Sheila, a black haired lady (thank you again for the excellent service). The place is clean and stylish. Would come again. P.s. the pizza I've ordered was a different shape than usual so I was confused at first

The room above was perfect. We would book again. Having your own bar, toilet, TV, sound system and the privacy needed to be as fun as you want, made this the best decision.

I hired for a surprise 50th party and it was fantastic. Great service and staff. Food and drinks are delicious and the space is perfect

Excellent cocktails and excellent service in a stylish, unusual and still cozy atmosphere! The team take great care for the safety of their customers in this current Corona madness, and still make you forget the world outside for an hour or three. Bonus: the food is great, as well!

We hired the upstairs bar for a private party. The interior decor is super stylish, there is your own manned bar, canape boards, and a DJ area. The best thing was the late license 2am. Love this place x
