Amazing whisky selection and outstanding service. An Irish bartender (together with the manager on duty) gave us one of the best experiences I’ve had in a bar – passionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. Friendly, attentive, and with a true love for whisky. Highly recommended! (Roger, form Chile)

Had my 30th in the basement downstairs which was amazing. Such a great room for a private function, the staff working on the bar were all fab and helped make the night run smoothly. Would definitely recommend as a venue for private hire. Some issues with a few people coming into the room after visiting the toilets as they’re situated right next it so did have to ask people to leave a few times. Had to chase email responses a lot but appreciate they are a busy bar with lots of different events on. Overall a great experience!

Amazing pub with local vibe, great service, and I really enjoyed the open mic night except the host.. bloody hell he needs to take a break, stealing the thunder from the local acts and being a weirdo pretending to know the words and get the crowd hyped. I was HYPED for the music, but he gave me the ick.. cokey dude needs to take a break and let the artists speak for themselves.
