    The place was nice. But the drinks did take a while to come to our table. But they did take off a drink of the bill because of this which was nice. Would definitely go again

    Dear Gurjtd, Thank you for your recent review. We sincerely apologies for the delay of the drinks. We hope you will give us another chance in future to rectify this mistake. Warm regards, May Fair Bar Management Team
