Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

The food was average and you can definitely find better options in the area what left a bad taste was the poor service. Bear in mind the restaurant wasn’t extremely busy and there was an empty table for 6 and another for 2 from the...moment we went in since we left and another that was about to empty. The three of us ordered food and drink , they served rather quickly but after maybe 20 minutes while we still had food and drinks left they came with the bill and two second later came to get paid. We asked for a minute. We were told to not rush but that they need the table , not sure why since they had an equal size table left and when we wanted to split the bill asked us to pay by the till. We were literally given 30 mins to eat/drink in a not so busy restaurant… it’s extremely rude. When my friend addressed that at the till the guy there who was not involved at serving us before said we should have let him know sooner and that he could have reduced our bill, which he didn’t but also it’s not the point as that wasn’t our issue.More

The food was good and tasty. The portion size was average. It was obviously under new management because there was an item detailed on the menu that didn't arrive. When I queried this with the waiter he said it was from the old menu.

This was a nice find, good vegetarian food that isn’t boring. Really really nice staff and a young crowd, probably the best place to eat round the best bit of town. Rubel was seriously helpful with our order.

Terrible service, we waited near 2 hours for our meal - one of which was a childs meal. The service was completely dysfunctional. We were told orders were taken in order of seating, but you could see this was clearly not the case. The food...arrived as we were about to walk out (after asking multiple times how much longer it would be) and it was cold. Might be a nice pic for insta but definitely worth the wait. Would not recommend!More

Stumbled across this place purely by chance when my hubby decided that he did now want breakfast!! Polite and attentive staff and the decor was super cute and very Insta worthy! The food was simply wow from the presentation to the huge flavours and taste!...We had the steak and eggs and the brunch beast. Both were delicious and we were feeling mighty proud of ourselves for choosing such a fab place! We will definitely be returning so we can sample more of the menu!More
