Such a great place to catch up with friends or family. So many food & drink options that everyone can pick and choose what they fancy. We went in a quiet Sunday evening so it wasn't busy.

A huge building taken over with food retailers and bars. We called in during the day and the place was well attended. I guess that on an evening this place will be buzzing with atmosphere as people come along to dine and enjoy themselves.

Good use of a venue, lots of seating, large bar so easy service. Unfortunately I didn't have anything to eat as the place I came to try was shut, and didn't really want anything else. But what I saw looked superb.

We went for a 90s night event on Saturday. I was pleasantly surprised at the size of the place once in. Lots of choice of drinks and bars. Food was great from FUKU. The music even was busy and the atmosphere was great, will think about attending another night at some point.

The Atmosphere was the most best i was so excited about the food until I ate the food and then got food poisoning.So I wouldn't say that was a great experience.However, the interiors into many sections were dope and the exterior was the best part of the visit...

I'm gutted not to give 5 stars. We went to a daytime disco and initially the queues/waiting times for drinks were excessively long. That is my only grumble, the disco was fantastic, the people and atmosphere great all 5 stars, except for the slight blot with drink waiting times
