Kevin R. ★★★★★ : A nice bar/restaurant/entertainment area. We visited with family for an afternoon chat, meal and drinks so there was a quiet feel to the venue, but I'm sure its more lively in the evenings and at weekends. The food was very tasty and everything was reasonably priced. Hopefully we will go again soon.
