Service is not bad, the only unpleasent part of the evening was collecting our coates from the wardrobe ... but i guess is understandable ... More

Celebrated my birthday here with my sister and a couple of friends. The food was so beautiful I almost didn't want to eat it. the service was brilliant, giving me lots of birthday attention. Went on to the club. Shame it was too cold to go out on to the roof garden! Great night out! More

The best feature of this venue is its terrace for those rarest of warm english summer nights. The rest of it however is pretty standard for an overpriced club serving bad cocktails. It is usually packed to the brim (then which club isn't), costs £20 and you have to queue for at least 40 mins even if you are on... More
