Mahoosive burgers & lots of chips. Make sure you go hungry! I had Guac to the Future a vegan option, nice side salad & fries. My husband had a the Ranch, a fully stacked burger with onion rings. Both for us really enjoyed our food & will go back again. Great finding a place that suits a vegan & omni

food is ok but the venue is too small inside; very few tables and felt cramped on a table directly in front of the ladies toilets

Fabulous food, great ambience and a huge selection of interesting drinks (even when it isn't a beer/gin/rum/whisky festival). The burgers are superb and there are other options if you're veggie, vegan or gluten free.

Amazing place, really friendly staff and the food is seriously amazing. Went on a Tuesday where they do any twork burger meals for £22 and yeah you leave feeling full. The portions are huge but I'm not complaining that's part of why it was so amazing. Food was soo soo yummy and had a cheeky glass of wine which was lovely. Loads to chose from and the combinations what you can have on your burgers is huge. It's a must to go to.

we had a fantastic meal, the food was wonderful and the staff were friendly. would have been a 6 but i think the staff undersold the quality of the food, they need to shout from the rooftops about the quality of their ingredients, give more information about the specials and up sell the puddings. this place has amazing food well worth a visit.

Burgers are the main offerings and they come in big size! I was also impressed with the variety of choices available (some with exotic ingredients like mango) and vegan choices. However, the burgers are too big for my taste and the patty was a bit dry. In general, nice atmosphere, beer choices are great, as was the service. A nice place for a hearty meal and socialising, but the burgers are overrated, I'm afraid.

Delicious meal! Would thoroughly recommend the vegan burgers - went during the vegan fest. We were a bit let down as somehow our order didn't get through to the kitchen so we were waiting for an hour and no one noticed that we were still waiting. Only after I had ordered another drink whilst we waited for them to finally cook it, they offered us a couple of free drinks. Very unfortunate that this all happened as we came for my boyfriend's birthday. Overall, food was lovely but considering how much we paid for food, I kind of expected a bit more compensation for the mess up :/

Booked for 18:45 Saturday. Atmosphere was horrendous, more of a drunken pub than a food supplier. Didn't even stay for drinks as my partner and I couldn't even talk over all the ruckus being made by the drunk patrons. I would expect somewhere that prides itself on its food to at least have a separated dining area so diners aren't subjected to the ruckus of those who are there to drink. Overall very disappointed and left immediately.

Great staff and brilliant food! We went whilst it was 'vegan week'. A lot of the food was sold out, however there was still plenty of vegan options available so it's suitable for all dietary types!

Went for the Sunday roast burger. The burger itself was good but the meal was let down by poor roast potatoes. The image and advertising showed Krispy rosemary roasted potatoes but they were more like the frozen bought in variety. I wish I had ordered a different burger, then I would have got fries. The service was better than we have experienced previously and as usual the drinks selection was really good.
