    The food was nice and the staff were friendly. We went midday Saturday so not a lot of people in but plenty of seats and TV's. We watched the football and at regular intervals all but one of the TV'S flickered off before coming back about 30secs later. Not great if someone scores but I suppose replays will cover that.

    A drink was thrown in to a crowd of people and the owner said they couldn't do anything even tho they had cameras and was told who it was. Was clearly a racially motivated attack from a group of white boys targeted at brown minorities wont be going here again worst night experience.

    Great venue decent tunes but gets a bit too busy. My only criticism is the Manny the guy with a head like a giant shiny watermelon and a weird 1970s tash, is always at the front door letching over the girls and it's creepy as anything, like watching your creepy neighbour stare at your daughter. Not ok.. Other than that, top night out.
