    Average family run chippy. The food is edible, but nothing special. Seems to be the service is normally fairly slow. Nothing to shout about.

    My friends, my husband and I went here for my birthday in September. Our friends enjoyed their…read moremeals quite a lot and so we said we would return. My husband and I go quite often but it was our friends first visit. In October I rang to book a table for 10/12/16. Something came up and so I rang to change the booking for last night. We paid 8.00 for a taxi and arrived 15 mins early for our table. We were all hungry and looking forward to the steaks. On arrival we waited a few mins before we were welcomed by a gentleman who asked if he could help. We said we had a table booked. He could not find the booking. I explained that I had changed the date, so he looked at the 10th and my booking was still there. No bar meals were being served, the restaurant was full and so was the cabaret lounge. It was 8pm on a cold wintery evening and the gentleman could offer us nothing. I asked for the manager and he said he was the manager. He didn't offer us the taxi fare, a drink or anything in way of apology for his staffs error. Not very good customer service, is it Liam? Loyal customers are the ones you should want to keep happy, not send away angry.

There is a separate dining area at the back if you want a more á la carte dining experience. The bar has recently been refurbished and really looks the part. There's lots of quiet alcoves and intimate seating areas. This makes it a more enjoyable place to have a drink rather than some of the more crowded, rowdy bars in the area. It's also a good place to hold a function or to meet up for a few drinks prior to heading off to an event. Recommended if you're in the area and want to avoid South Road.
