Really ponderous service, got our last Tapas dish 15 mins after everything else so were all sat eating potatoes. Felt like we were hidden in a corner and forgot about. The food was pretty good and the staff friendly on the rare occasion we encountered some. My wife went 6months before and had a great experience.

Table service only for drinks is commendable but having to give names and numbers on entry undermines my honesty. Lovely decor and atmosphere but drinks very expensive. A pint of Carling at £4.50 is a deal breaker for me (50% more than Weatherspoons prices). I appreciate different pub types but £1.50 per pint more can't be justified to me.

Date night with my hubby, first time at the royal beautiful outside area and wonderful staff the only down fall was we both came to eat tapas the menu advertised Gluten free dishes so this was perfect for my coeliac husband, after ordering we were told actually nothing is gluten free. Surely you simply can not advertise GF this could have made my husband very ill if I had not stated to make sure it was GF to the waitress. Please think about re-doing your menu to avoid simple costly mistakes to coeliac visitor . This is not a bad review by any means just simple advice to keep customers happy 😊

Tuesday night is Tapas night and quite simply the food is brilliant and authentically Spanish I believe they also do it on a Saturday night but was booked up for two weeks. Having now been we can understand why it's booked up. Large outside space for eating under a circus style tent plus space inside.
