They had a good amount of bar staff on meaning there was never a wait for a drink, which is refreshing on a Saturday night.
We had the karaoke room booked for an hour and whilst they were running late they kept us informed.
The booth was lovely, private and easy to use.
No doubt we’ll be back, if I can get over £6.60 a pint!
