First time visiting. Great atmosphere. All ages from 20s to 50s+ Music to match 🎵🎶. Came after a meal out ; so didn't try the food.

Booked the rooftop area for 8 friends - we were all coming from overseas so did not know what to expect - we had exceptional service and made to feel very welcome, along with beautiful views it was a great place to meet for pre drinks :)

I then went over…

We were in London for our 20th Wedding Anniversary and we're looking for a nice place to eat and chose here. We walked in and downstairs was quite busy with office workers etc as most bars are after 5 and ventured upstairs to the second floor. It was lovely up there with the French doors open looking onto the square and very modern decor but in keeping with the building. We had friendly attentive staff who took our food and drinks order and notified us there may be a delay in food which was good as many don't and I find annoying. The food was absolutely scrum and very rich, I had the hash…
