Staff were so friendly, made us feel really welcome. The menu had loads of clearly marked veggie options which was a nice surprise. Prices felt fair for what you get.

Popped in early for a bite. The fish and chips were spot on - crispy batter, proper chips. Love the old pub vibe in here, you can feel the history. No booking needed which was handy.

Zoe and Mariia were brilliant. Really professional, remembered our drinks order, and just made the whole evening run smoothly. A nice touch.

Maciej and Daniel were really helpful. The jugs here were noticeably fresher than at other places we tried. You could tell the ingredients were good quality.

The saffron ice cream was the perfect end to a rich dinner. Such a unique, subtle flavour. The fresh tea alongside it was lovely, though I wish the ice cream portion was a touch bigger.

Eden was a lovely host, very warm and attentive. It made for a pleasant evening. The food was decent, though the main course arrived a little later than expected. We&#39;d happily return.

Food was piping hot when it arrived. Owner even did deliveries himself when they were short-staffed.

Been coming here for years. The beer selection on tap is always spot on, and that&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

Been coming for years. The food&#39;s still spot on, but I&#39;ve always noticed the portions are a bit small for what you pay.

The burrito was enormous, almost comically so. We had a good laugh trying to figure out how to tackle it. Staff were really friendly about it too. Definitely got my money&#39;s worth on the portion size.

The chips are spot on, and the wine list has some decent options to go with them. Generous portions, everything cooked fresh.

Breakfast was spot on. The eggs were just right, bacon crispy, and the toast was fresh. Quick service too. A solid way to start the day.

Perfect spot for a quick lunch. The chicken curry is always fresh and packed with flavour. In and out in 20 minutes. Just what I need.

First time in, Summer was our server. She&rsquo;s quick, polite, and checked on us just the right amount. The sesame chicken fries were spot on, really crispy. Slaw was good too. Solid spot.

Been coming here for years, and it&#39;s always spotless. The tables are well-spaced, which makes for a very comfortable meal. The staff are friendly without being overbearing. A reliable spot when you just want a relaxed dinner.

Ate here last week. The background music was really nice, gentle and not too loud. It made for such a calm meal, you could actually have a conversation. The whole place felt clean and relaxing, which I appreciated.

Got here early without a booking. The tapas were spot on, especially the patatas bravas. Finished with a churros dessert that hit the sweet spot. Staff were really nice about it all.

Been here loads. Greek salad special is always fresh. Spicy meatballs are properly tender. One time there was a tiny hiccup, sorted straight away.

Been ordering their curry for months now, and it&#39;s always spot on. Even delivered, it arrives piping hot and tastes just like it does in the restaurant. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

Two courses and a drink for a tenner. Portions were decent for the money. Solid lunch option near the office.

The family meal deal was a steal, and the house red was surprisingly good with the hearty portions.

Busy Friday night. Got seated fast, food came quick. Staff were friendly, not rushed. Good vibe.

A really nice spot for a coffee or a meal near the Common. I popped in for lunch and found the service to be very friendly and unhurried, which was lovely. The seats by the window are quite comfortable.

The crab soup was so fragrant and comforting. The egg fried noodles had a lovely wok hei. Honestly, just a really nice, simple meal. Prices were a pleasant surprise too.

The lunch curry and rice deal is a solid &pound;10, and we added some tapas. Ended up with loads of food, had to take some home. Everything felt fresh and came out quickly. The space itself is really bright and airy, which I liked.
