Unfortunately there were only two employees who ran two bars and in front of the house. we had to hunt our drink orders, as it seemed to order more on the bar than on the table. when it came to order, the server took 4 other tabular orders. then our food came out separately. the half of the table had finished eating when the other half of the diners came out. eating was tasty, but I think that the witness can't handle when the events are on, as it is a big restaurant/bar for just two people to run.

He then informed us that the establishment is a bar and kitchen for patrons over 19, but is still family-friendly. I, being 18, was surprised and frustrated as I have never encountered such a policy in a pub before. There were no signs or clear indications of this rule.

The food is amazing! Only a single problem, plates were cold, so the food would have warmed longer if they had been heated. Maybe the cook could start improving... read more The food is amazing! Only a single problem, plates were cold, so the food would have warmed longer if they had been heated. Maybe the cook could start improving the experience. ? Good varied menu.
