Spent my 30th Birthday dinner here with five friends and the staff made an effort to make sure everything went to plan. Initially they sat us at a table for four so it was cramped but they moved us to a bigger table once we asked. Really appreciated it guys thank you for a great night!

The food was average and not great variety to order. Service was friendly but not efficient- we had to follow up on our food order as it was taking too long, and request for napkins and cutlery to be provided

We booked a bottomless gin brunch, which was great to begin with but after our second drink it took at least 20mins, up to 40mins to get another drink to the table. They forgot our orders twice. It was very disappointing as it had great potential, the food was good and the drinks were nice... but it was beyond slow. Not what we wanted for a bottomless brunch

- average food: bao buns very sweet, popcorn chicken had no taste - average staff, didn’t comment on food not eaten - expensive drinks with no expertise provided. Could have gone to a pub

Rotisserie chicken and whisky flight were excellent, but they'd run out of beer, to the slight displeasure of my fellow diners.

Friendly staff, great space, great whiskey selection. I definitely recommend the chocolate cake with lime ice cream. My point of criticism would be the relatively slow service since when my duck arrived it was not as hot as it should.

Just 'OK'. Food was OK, location and fitout is fair, whiskey range is pretty decent but shouldn't be a 'top 5 whiskey bar in London'.

Fantastic whisky selection with a very passionate expert on hand. Had the whisky flights to try a selection of Japanese and Taiwanese fare. The whisky was great but the knowledge and enthusiasm it was served with was even better. I would recommend this for an informal tasting session. Really enjoyed it.

We were slightly disappointed as their signature dish - the rotisserie chicken was very dry - maybe it was because we didn’t order the whole chicken so they only reheated the part we had. The drinks were good though.
