    We have been to The Sound Cafe many times before and always had a great time. This time we brought our daughter with us for her first experience to celebrate her 50th birthday. And we had a fantastic time !! The food is always good, the drinks are great and very “bottomless”!! And the staff are very friendly, warm and welcoming. It is highly recommended. Our young Italian waiter from Palermo was wonderful and it’s always so good to see Rafael, especially in his new role and the other familiar waiters. They made a fuss of our daughter and she loved it!! Thank you and see you in June, when we are back for my birthday.

    We booked brunch on Bank Holiday Monday and were delighted to find that the restaurant was a small independent business with lots of staff and a great family atmosphere. The service was friendly and they even made me an espresso martini that wasn’t on the menu. Food was all prepared to order and was absolutely delicious! I would highly recommend this place to anyone. It’s small but has both an upstairs and an outside dinning area. A great find 🥰❤️🥰❤️
