Don't get it... First impressions, I just don't get it! Yes, it's a great looking bar and has no many different sides to it, my fave being the garden area out the back however between the service and the food, I left a little disappointed after having this on my go-to list for so long.
It was a quiet early afternoon, we sat out back and it was a little windy but what was so annoying is that every like 5 mins, the waitress keep closing the electric awning only for the manager/host or dude that doesn't have to wear the uniform, kept opening it... I felt like shouting, Oi, cut it out! It was annoying, the noise plus let's face it yes it's a gorgeous garden and some natural light is better but it's windy and chilly so just leave it closed, you're not the one sitting out here with your cardigan and scarf still on you!
The food also took some time to come, the waitress was possible new at this as she was very awkward coming and going from the table; the final straw was when my husband was still eating, she came to clear away dishes, ok, take mine away however she proceeded to consolidate his plates including moving his knife and fork off the plate he was eating from; back off lady, he's eating! Some basic dining etiquette and it just wasn't displayed by the staff.
There was also a delay with our drinks, having ordered a drink within 5 mins of arriving, it was nearly 30 mins later before we got them. The order went to a bar that was closed, so the actual barman never got the order, didn't feel this was dealt with very well and as I ordered a cocktail, it then took another 10 mins after they discovered the mistake before we finally had a beverage on the table. tut tut!
I only live up the round from here however it's just not impressed me; wouldn't be rushing back.
