Came out on the 25th July for the happy hour got greeted and served by a sweet girl named amber she was super quick when it came to service she even showed me how to use the mixr app will be coming back again for sure
I'll start with the good: 2 of my 3 courses were tasty, and once the initial hit on the bar was done, service was quick and staff were very friendly. My reason for only 3 stars is here: We were told to be there from 7, but it was the day of multiple tube strikes, so we left loads of time and so arrived at 18:45. We weren't allowed in until 19:02, which, if that's their opening time, then that's just how it is...however, when we eventually got in after quite a journey and waiting outside (so quite thirsty), the bar then couldn't serve (the till needed the supervisor to open it) until 19:15. In isolation, either of these would've been fine. Once food started, service was quick and efficient, for the starter and main, and my wife's and my dishes were delicious. For dessert however my wife ordered a cheesecake, which was still frozen in the middle. We shared it, as I had ordered the chocolate tart which would hopefully be better. However the staff had messed up the delivery and the only dessert left was another semi frozen cheesecake. To my mind, with a party of such size (30) and if there is potential of error in delivery, then they should have a few buffers per course, but that wasn't the case. If the cheesecake had been nice, I also might not have minded, but it wasn't. As always, I far prefer giving good reviews to bad, but this was my experience.
We stopped by after work for a few beers on a hot, sunny day. Service was a little slow but some of that was down to the punters. Happy hour beer was ridiculously cheap and the outside area was great for people watching.
I didn't have food so I can't give marks for that. Service is a 3 for me, only because it's so packed and takes ages to get a drink. But I'll big up the bar staff because they are flat out serving. And I hope the management is paying them well because they are doing a fine job. The atmosphere is good in my opinion. It's young, but the youngsters I've seen there have manners.
A lovely bar with lots of space and great service. Had one of the best pints of Inches I've ever been poured in London. Amazing food and amazing deals! Definitely the one of the best places to stop for lunch and a beer.
