You’ve won us over completely! Will 100% be back.

Went here for lunch, wasn’t that busy in the restaurant the whole inside area was empty. Was ignored by the bar staff as soon as we walked in. A lovely waitress then walked past and saw us standing waiting awkwardly and said to take a seat anywhere.nGot a drink which arrived quickly and ordered some mushrooms on toasts and fish tacos, which took over 45 minutes to arrive after our drinks. The tacos were nice but small and not worth the wait. We ended up asking how much longer it would take as it had been another 15 minutes since someone said it would be out soon. If they had indicated the kitchen was busy I would understand but the restaurant just lacked customer service and value for money/time spend waiting.

Great service, extremely welcoming. I'll start with the good: we ordered chicken pesto linguine; it was magical—great taste, extremely creamy, and perfectly cooked. Then we got fish and chips; they were perfectly cooked and tasted good. Then we got stone-grilled chicken thighs; they were perfect, with great flavor and balance. So I highly recommend the linguine and chicken thighs. Five stars!nnWe started with chicken wings; perfectly cooked, but not seasoned. My personal preference is seasoned wings, so they were the only food I wasn't 100% happy with, but this restaurant is amazing. Thank you for having us, CBK.

what a great place to have a birthday lunch! as soon as we walked in we were greeted with a smile.nservice was quick, staff were very friendly and attentive, amazing food and the long Island iced tea was delicious nwill definitely be back!
