it was my best friends 30th and we had a reservation. we were seated towards the back with an obstructed view of the stage which is what we were excited to see. there was also a slight chill to our experience as we were seated close to a door that opened quite often. outside of that service was excellent and the food was amazing!

We had a great brunch experience here for my husband’s birthday! Amazing service, friendly and knowledgeable staff, great setting, and most importantly, delicious food! You must try the scotch egg and Baileys chocolate pudding. They were also very attentive to allergies here-we don’t have any, but I was impressed that they were asking everyone to help accommodate those who do. We will definitely be back next time we’re in town!
