Friday night. Nice atmosphere, not too busy and not too quiet. Food was top tier. They even offered a free drink because of the delay for my meal, which was very generous. Very attentive staff, I would recommend to all.

Best espresso martinis I’ve ever had thanks to the lady behind the bar, nice atmosphere outside with the outdoor heaters too. Student friendly with happy hour and 2 for £10 on cocktails - will be sure to visit again!

What a lovely experience on a Tuesday night. The barman who we’d like to call a “Johnny Depp lookalike” was super friendly, and made an overly fussy customer very happy. Went out of his way to make our night. Extra spicy Bloody Mary was on point. Place is lovely and clean, garden beautiful with heaters for the winter. 10/10

Spacious it is. It has a few couches, if sitting lower to the ground is your thing. Conveniently close to the O2 Academy if you fancy a pre/ post concert drink.

Only giving it 4 stars because it does smell like farts and only sell mojitos in a jug. As a fully grown adult that is nearly in her 50s I should know better than to hit cocktails. Becka was very capable of mixing those said cocktails snd for her troubles also was more than capable of booking a taxi home for us. Thank you Becka, keep up the good work 👍
