Stopped by for a quick pint and ended up staying longer than planned. The tap list changes all the time, had some Schramm mead which you don&#39;t see everywhere. Bartender knew what they were talking about, pointed me to something I&#39;d never tried before. Solid spot if you&#39;re into beer.

Walked in without a booking, got lucky with a table. Lobster special was solid, scallops too. Ribeye came out exactly as asked. Been here a few times now, still consistent.

Came for drinks, ended up booking a table for the next night. Wine list is solid and the food matched. Staff actually remembered us when we walked in. Nice spot.

We sat outside on the terrace. Chicken shashlik was really good, tender and had that smoky taste. Portions are big, no complaints there. Only thing is the highway noise, you can hear cars the whole time. Not their fault really. Place is fine for a casual meal if you&#39;re in the area. I&#39;d come back for the shashlik.

We grabbed a table with friends and ordered a bunch of tapas to share. The beef tartare sando was the highlight for sure, so good. Burrata was solid too. Portions are pretty small, so you kinda need to order a lot if you&#39;re hungry. But it&#39;s a fun spot for a casual catch-up over good food.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Grey peas were solid, best I&#39;ve had in a while. Boletus soup was simple but tasty. Place is tucked away in a courtyard, easy to miss. Service was fast enough for a lunch break. Portion size was okay, nothing crazy. Would go back if I&#39;m in the area.

Stumbled onto this place while wandering away from the main tourist spots. Lunch menu is easy on the wallet and the food was solid. Had a glass of local white with my meal&mdash;went down a bit too easy. Staff were genuinely nice, not the fake tourist-service kind. Good spot if you want a quiet bite in the centre.

The interior is genuinely cool&mdash;lots of little details to look at, and the rock playlist fit the vibe. Bartender was friendly too. Just wish the seating was a bit more comfortable for a long evening.

The mozzarella sticks with that mustard sauce were the highlight&mdash;staff actually knew what to suggest.

The lamb skewers were properly charred and juicy. Good spice rub on them. Portion could be bigger for the price, but the taste makes up for it.

Stopped by for a drink and ended up staying longer than planned. The Indian food from next door is really good &mdash; got the butter chicken and it hit the spot. Solid selection of local beers too. Nice place to just chill and watch the cricket. Service was a bit slow but whatever, wasn&#39;t in a rush.

The syrniki here were the highlight for me &mdash; soft inside, slightly crispy outside, exactly what I needed. Coffee was solid too, nothing fancy but well made. Staff were friendly without hovering. Place had a nice buzz but not too loud to talk. Would come back if I&#39;m in the area again.

The in-house brewed beers are the highlight&mdash;the IPA and saison were both solid. Industrial-chic decor with a surreal touch fits the vibe, though it got pretty busy when I was there.

Stopped by for coffee and a croissant&mdash;the salmon one was pretty good, flaky and fresh. My friend got the banana Nutella version and honestly that was the better pick. Place is chill, not too crowded in the afternoon. Just wish they had more seating by the window.

Tried the truffle fries &mdash; fresh, crispy, plenty of flavor. Chilli Ripper had a decent kick, onion rings on top gave it a nice crunch. Only downside was the wait, got pretty busy around lunch. Nothing fancy, but I&#39;d grab it again if I&#39;m in the area.

Been here a few times now. Cake slices are still the reason I come back. Seating gets cramped when it&#39;s busy, but the vibe keeps it worth it.

The falafel kebab was the highlight for me. Moist inside, crispy outside, and you can tell they make it fresh. I grabbed one to go and ate it by the park. Would&rsquo;ve liked a bit more sauce, but honestly, it held up well. Good spot if you&rsquo;re nearby.
