One reviewer wrote: "We were lucky enough to get a ‘walk in’ table today for lunch. Absolutely fantastic roast, great selection of drinks and very friendly & helpful staff."

Another said: "Ordered food and drinks via the QR Code, both delivered in a reasonable time so no complaints.

"One waitress, believe her name was Regina, was very attentive and actually gave eye contact when speaking to us. This is something that is rare to find nowadays, an asset and a pure credit to your team at this location. We couldn't praise her enough, please note that your other staff members were approachable too but Regina just stood out amongst them."
