Really friendly staff, very accommodating. Great party venue to entertain the guests. Nice having some games as an icebreaker. Everyone really enjoyed the food, very plentiful and went round. Would definitely recommend. Easy booking, great communication.

Great venue, great space, lovely GM who was super helpful

The music went off about 6 times throughout the night which was frustrating. The service was also a bit slow and the bar staff would vanish for 10/15 mins leaving the bar unmanned which again was a little frustrating.
