Had my birthday party in the room upstairs. Great room, lovely food. The staff looked after us so well, and all seem like great people. We felt very well looked after. I'd really recommend this place to anyone. I'll be going back for a pint soon, as it seems like a top pubJames Darling

A really nice modern queer pub.Expect some sort of meetup to be happening, either downstairs or upstairs.The food is very good, much better than you'd expect in a pub, but with prices to match the quality. Vegan first, but with non-vegan options too.Steve

I've never seen in my life a place filled with so many smiling, dancing and inteligent people. Such a nice place and croud. And the toilet... wow, that's art, I never imagined that a toilet can have so much beauty. And they wipe it blank every day. Awesome, isn't it? Art for a day.Lynsey Taylor

Neat family-friendly pub with decorative interior, and even games for kids. Women's toilets have chalk board markers for wall doodles (hehe)Elliot Venn

Such a beautiful little gem of a pub with delicious vegan food. I went here just to meet some friends, but turns out there was a drag show being performed that night which made my visit truly memorable. I'll definitely be back again very soon!Vanessa Alcala

My boyfriend and I had ordered a burger through deliveroo before, but wanted to try out going to the pub ourselves. We tried two of the burgers and the breaded Mac and cheese vegan balls. Everything was so delicious and the staff was so friendly! The Mac and cheese is a smaller portion, but hearty and filling!Shiggi Pakter

Wonderful pub, amazing cocktails, super friendly staff and the vegan food is glorious (and that's coming from a full-time meat eater. Their entire menu is vegan) ❤️Xander H.

A good standby pub with good enough food... The apple tree doesn't shine bright as one of the stars of the area, and yet I keep going back. Perhaps it is...
