    Interesting selection of cocktails at the bar. Plenty of new ones to try, but they'll make any of the classics if you ask.

    We enjoyed a light lunch: salmon noodle salad and my friend, the duck salad. Well priced. Lovely waitress, sunny day, great wine and company.

    Outstanding new breakfast menu. Different to the usual eggs on toast. Have the buckwheat crèpe or the Bircher.

    Generous tasting plate suit 3-4 ppl for entree. Caesar a little disappointing. A good attempt at improving an old classic, but some flavours jar, such as the tart fresh anchovies and capers

    Was going to list what was wrong about our visit to @thebotanical but the simple fact is service was really poor & food was disappointing (esp. considering the price) - this one is all show & no go.

    Waiter told us to F*** off when trying to order a drink, also short changing us. Told manager (Will) he shrugged it off like It was nothing. DO NOT GO HERE. worst osyters I have EVER eaten (frozen)

    Service was really truly horrible. Ordered 2 beers and fries. Fries eventually arrived, no sign of beers. Very rude waiter, was only nice when presenting the bill. Definitely No tip for you!

    Don't eat here unless you have all day. Ordered simple toast and coffee. Half an hour later, cancelled the toast and took the kids somewhere else!
