    Initially disappointed at it was Chicken Wings only, but part of that fault could lie with me, though staff did say they need to get the info out better on apps like this. Staff were very helpful, food was lovely and we will be going back to try the full menu out!

    Couldn’t sit under the table with your legs as there was a metal bar- chairs small and uncomfortable chicken dry- ribs dry - pork belly chewy - best part was the slaw

    We were very enthusiastically greeted apon arrival and seated in one of the booths. Both servers were attentive and friendly. Drinks and food were delivered very quickly. The menu is quite small, but we liked that as overly complicated menus can make it difficult to choose. My wife had the ribs and I had half a smoked chicken. What can I say? Everything cooked perfectly and was hot. My chicken was on steroids! I've never seen a chicken so big. The portion sizes a on the large side, but we were given containers. We had the leftovers for dinner next day! We had a large glass of wine, a beer and 2 main courses and it came to less than £50. Amazing value for money. Highly recommend a trip here

    Went to the relaunch night and had spectacular food and fantastic service. Food was flavoursome, tender and portion size very generous. The best wings I have ever had and the Brisket was to die for. New chef, kitchen team and front of house make this a must go to place.
