Was my brothers going away and we had the upstairs room next to the bar which was amazing. Food was great & fast! One problem we had was one of the bartenders who was on a power trip .. I would’ve had 4 drinks in 3 hours and when I went to the bar was told “you should drink some water I don’t want to cut you off” actually thought he was joking at first But he was being dead serious and continued on his little rant Now I suffer from a lisp and it gets pretty bad after a few drinks which I told him … He didn’t like that and continued on another rant. It was so bad to the point other staff members were coming up to me and apologising for what had happened and tell me he’s done this quite a lot in the past and they’ve had complaints about him. At this point corner hotel you need to deal with power trip egotistical staff like this as it’s a bad image for a rather great venue.

We attended prior to a concert at Marvel Stadium. We booked ahead( a straight forward process using the website) and arrived slightly early. The place was busy but extremely organised and well staffed. Our orders were delivered promptly and the food was exactly as described. We therefore had a stress free and pleasant dinner leaving in plenty of time for our concert. It is not the place for an intimate dinner and chat, but ideal if you want good food presented on time and with efficient and friendly service.
