    Scouse John was our server. Amazing guy, top quality server and asked us if we wanted any songs on. Food was delicious and the cocktails were 10/10, even better being in the hurricane glasses (thanks again for the recommendation!) We also shared the same music taste so that was a bonus talking about gigs and bands. Will definitely be back the next time we venture into Edinburgh, thanks for making our day so awesome John! :) xx
