Our Guestbook
“ Friends and I had drinks here. Brilliant ambience, they have a heated outdoor space too. Lovely cocktails and the food was scrumptious. Definitely try the Salmon Bellini. But what really was great about this place was the manager, Manuelle. What a gentleman and great conversationist. We had some issues with our table, which he immediately sorted and was a brilliant host the whole night. Would definitely recommend this place for speakeasy drinks and nibbles night, as there is music, but you can also actually hear each other talk without getting that scratchy throat the next day! 10/10. ”
“ Great atmosphere and staff the pop up I had was le bun and thoroughly enjoyed their food ”
“ The service here was outstanding. Our waiter Manuele was very friendly and ensured we happy and had what we wanted before the last glass was empty. The fig proseco gets my thumbs up too. ”
“ Amazing evening here, it was my first time but Manuel who looked after us made me feel like it was already my local! He suggested each cocktail, (with only my very poor examples of what I think I like as I really don’t have or know much about cocktails) and all 3 were as insane as they looked! Soo refreshing and pure to have staff that care and ensured we were having a great night. Thank you ”
