A group of us have been coming here for many years. We tend to go in warmer months as it is great for sitting outside and enjoying the world going by. The cocktails are good, beer is lovely, but we would avoid the bottles of bubbles. Just not good quality or worth the price for them. The staff are always friendly and security are great. There are many things to keep you interested when they put on special nights like bingo. Give it a visit in summer!

Genuinely lovely staff, nice and relaxed atmosphere, nice cocktails, good prices (especially the happy hour ones), basically one of my favourite bars here. There is no shouting or pushing either. And the best it's only 5 min from home :-)

Love it here. It’s so fun and the servers are very nice too. It’s not too big but the cocktails are good. I’d come back!
