"A couple of beers and lunch. Okay, but not outstanding. Service with a smile would be nice. Certainly quiet, lacking a bit of atmosphere."
We have always enjoyed the food here. And the decor has always been welcoming. However, we were disappointed at our latest visit. It seems dark and uninviting, more a place for drinkers that to sit and have a pleasant meal. The fact that there are fewer tables, and more standing room says it most. We were met by the overpowering smell of last night's beer, and a distinct lack of service. We Sat and waited, while a young lady wandered by a couple of times, then disappeared. I went to the bar, and stood, while the lone barman sauntered past and outside to collect glasses I knew this by the fact that he returned with several, some couple of minutes later). I ordered our food and drink and waite...
I stopped by for a quick bite and they had a special deal of 2 for $10 on mini snacks which I thought was a good deal. The chilli and rice dish was quite enjoyable, but when the fish and chips were brought to the table, the smell was so overpowering that I couldn't bring myself to eat it. I'm not sure what kind of fish it was, but I learned my lesson to always ask in the future. The staff did check in to see if everything was okay, but I didn't want to complain or make a fuss. The hot chocolate was fantastic and I would give it full marks, but the latte was not as good. The staff were polite and the seating was comfortable.
My partner and I went to the first Caribbean themed night last night. The food was great. We both had the spinach, aubergine, sweet potato and kidney bean curry. It was really nice. I don't normally eat curry, but this was really tasty, hot, but not overpowering. I also sampled the goat curry which was also great. I don't know of any other place locally that offers this selection of food. Well worth a try.
Poor service. Three people, one serving (completely out of order), one wiping the benches continuously and pouring her own drink and the other scratching his arse looking useless. Have drank here plenty of times before and enjoyed it. Walked out tonight.

We had a drink here on a Saturday night. It needed more tables and chairs, however we just about managed to seat 10 of us! The music was quite loud, but you could still just about hear each other. They had a local band on which were very pleasant too.
Taken here by friends for wine and dine option. Food very good and service excellent, nice touch the doggy bottle for those in our group who wanted to take some of their wine home. Lovely decor, lively but not too noisy, lovely atmosphere.
I went to this restaurant for lunch yesterday and was really impressed. They have a wide selection on the menu, but I decided to try the beef sandwich. It came with chips and salad, and it was delicious.
