Great experience. The staff were incredible. The venue was amazing. The food and drinks were 10/10. Special shout outs to Max, Sarah, Natasha, Diren, Chanté and Marcus. The manager sorted us out and the staff were very accommodating. They checked in on us regularly and the security was top tier. Great place to host a private party.

Huge potential but seemed like only one staff member so there’s no table service. The location is amazing and the rooftop has a good view while you drink.

I have been there twice, their rooftop terrace is great, beautiful view of Oxford. Both time their food and service were disappointing, unfortunately. Last time, few days ago, it was very busy, the service was slow and getting the drink right was also a challenge. It has potential to improve.

Beautiful location and view, but it all falls apart when there's no one to take an order or do the service. No Gould at the waitress who were working, but we're booked a table and came just a bit early, been told where's no online ordering only table service, after waiting for more than 25 min decided to leave as nobody neither approached our table not showed any interest doing so. Would be understandable if place was packet but it was half empty.
