I took my Fiancé to Aura for her 29th birthday from the moment we arrived to the second we left the service was impeccable, Rhodri was our waiter and gave us exemplary service we also had service from Jess who was just as attentive and enthusiastic. The cocktails were speedy and well made, I didn’t catch the name of the bar mar but hats off to you my good man. The food was amazing hats off for the kitchen team tonight, the prawns we had as a starter were cooked to perfection. My Partner had an amazing evening. Thank you so much.

Had the afternoon tea as a birthday treat. Fantastic service, very quick with the food and had refills of our hot drinks. The afternoon tea is quite a spectacle! Massive amount of food (we had to take some away in a box!) but all very tasty. We even had a bonus birthday choux bun with chocolate sauce at the end! Only slight downside was the festive Battenberg was a bit strange being bright green and red.
