    came here for an amazing lunch today, after it being recommended to us by my partner’s colleagues. incredible service from every member of staff we spoke to. food was great! they made many adjustments for us which we really appreciated, such as having the sauce for the chicken on the side instead of on top. i opted for a burger with most items removed, our server mentioned there was a plain burger which wad slightly cheaper which may be better suited for me! never had a burger place suggest this for me and i usually end up paying full price. the biscoff milkshake was also lovely, definitely didn’t have room for any dessert after that!

    The service was excellent - our servers were kind and attentive. The five lies burger (w/o onion) and with fries: The veggie patty didn't have much flavour but compromised with a tangy mustard. Perhaps the SFC style has a better flavour. There was a lovely amount of thick-cut pickles The Semi-parmed life chicken burger was excellent. The chicken was well-seasoned and went perfectly with the other fillings. There was a generous portion of pickles which were delicious. The hand-cuts (chips) were very nice with lovely seasoning. The food could have been warmer, fries were cold but understandable as there were full tables and we were sat upstairs (tables were quite crammed together). We also had a deep-fried mars bar with ice cream! The ice cream was soft-serve and contrasted well with the chewiness from the mars bar. This is a must have if you have a sweet-tooth.

    Great staff , great food, great vibes. Lily W was so funny! Josh was very friendly and attentive: brought us 4 tap waters to the table so nobody was dry. I was thoroughly impressed and will be back!

    Beautiful as always. I have left feedback for the stairs though as they were slippy, 28weeks pregnant I had to walk a little slower on the stairs to be careful. We had our own room upstairs as we were a big group. The servers were lovely.
