Look, you know what you get here, coked up lawyers and wanna bes. And that's fine on a Friday night if that's your thing.
But I had the unpleasant experience of a work lunch here recently-can suggest about 20 better places in close proximity.
Front of house woman, unprofessional and rude, asked the name of my booking said she couldn't find it and was I sure I had a booking and then asked me to move out of the doorway because "we're very busy today" ? There was a handful of other people queuing, and her priority should have obviously been to find my party (several of whom were already inside)

Directions on Google maps was tricky as it led me towards the back. Place itself is good. Plenty of room, food can be ordered without leaving the table with a quick QR code scan. I was there at peak lunch time and the food at our table very quickly. Not a long wait at all. Good place to have bit of pub food, drink and have a merry time with friends.

Booked a table for 4:30, took me about 20 minutes for someone to serve me at the bar to take my order, as I was completely ignored and over looked. At 4:50, was told I couldn’t order food, as the kitchen wasn’t open yet, I couldn’t even preorder. I asked the barman to come back to me at 5pm, order for food was placed at 4:58pm and went through. The chicken was dry and not good quality, it was also very loud. Go to this place just for the drinks, not for the food.

We had our Christmas party here where we reserved the top section which had a small balcony. The space was perfect for a group size for upto 90 ppl specially it was a hot day.
Just the acoustics could have been better as it got really loud.
Then we went to their bar in the basement level which was great for our after party

I never knew such a beautiful space exist in the city. Spacious and the decor is beautiful. There’s an Italian restaurant being opened up in a few days. Came in for lunch with my colleagues although some found it hard to order through the app, not much vegan options and the service can be improved. Well we are coming out from a long lockdown so gotta cut them some slack. I’m sure it will pick up. Beers on tap, can’t beat that on a sunny afternoon.

The service was a absolutely AMAZING! By the time my friends and I decide what to eat, the kitchen had already closed and the staff forgot to give us a notice BUT, Shawn let us all order from Uber eats and he gave us plates and utensils, got me Tabasco Sauce to satisfy my craving for spice haha 🌶 The service was IMPECCABLE! I even made reservations for my birthday in Jan (We’re still in October lol) 😆 I’ll definitely come back for sure!

Amazing bar, club and entertainment venue right in the heart of the city. Free entry which is a welcome relief from some clubs. Great for an after dinner drink or four. There are three levels with multiple dance floors, many bars and different chill spaces. You need them all as it gets packed! Good for all ages and very mixed crowd. Definitely worth a visit.

This place has one of the best vibes going around. Never knew it was here, but stumbled upon it and went in for a bev. The aesthetic of the whole place is a mad ting. The customer service was good. Pricing is on the higher end of things, but it's kinda what you'd expect for a classy joint like this. Would be elite for a date night or kicking back with the squad after work. The overall experience here was salubrious in every way... definitely recommend sussing it out.
