Food was delicious and staff very friendly . Loved the 2 for 1 cocktails . The only negative issue is that they shut the bar at 9.30 and start clearing up around you . We were celebrating my friends birthday and felt we needed to go by 10 pm . I would definitely go again but maybe start earlier next time !

Lovely restaurant, good service & food but really disappointed towards the end. At 10.05pm we were told it’s last orders for drinks, no offer of a dessert, tea/ coffee & the bill was placed in our table to be settled. By 10.30, we were asked if we could pay the bill as they wanted to close! You shouldn’t take a booking for 8pm if you’re going to close at 10pm. We had not seen our friends in such a long time & our evening was cut short at the end! Such a shame as everything else was lovely

Absolutely love Brakan! Such delicious food, gorgeous decor and the service is always so friendly and prompt. It's a varied enough menu with gluten free options which is perfect for me. The shish chicken dish is lovely with generous portion size. Good atmosphere too which is helped by the comfortable and beautifully decorated surroundings.

Had a lovely midweek meal with a friend. Loved the dips for starters. Fillet steak was good but not outstanding. The staff are very attentive but not overpowering to their credit. Had a complimentary shot to end the evening which was much appreciated. Thank you. I would definitely go back to try other options.
