    Food was great but the Service was ordinary. Had to prompt staff a few times for menus, wine and to deliver the bill.

    A party of 6 mid week booking. Despite being by the waitress 3 times what we had ordered having ordered meals for all, after 1 1/2 hours waiting for food the kitchen closed and our order was missed. Very disappointing.

    It was a really busy night, a Tuesday night, and I don’t think they were expecting soooo many people, so they were a bit short-staffed (it happens), but we had a great night. Fantastic atmosphere, piano bar music playing live, good cocktails and wine choices and we really liked the food. A great time was had by all.

    We love Queenies, my partner is Celiac and to have such a fantastic restaurant where we don’t have to think as it is 100% gluten free is just a joy. The food is always amazing and the service is so friendly and spot on, can’t recommend it enough.

    The decor is nice. The cocktails were good. Sadly, the staff seemed quite lost and table was not set with cutlery so when food arrived we had to wait another 5 mins for knife and forks so meat was cold. Kale was super salty to the point of being inedible that came with the strip loin. The Lamb cutlets nice. Also noticed the hostess spent most the evening talking to the singer rather than attending to multiple tables either empty plates and glasses and very little interest in clearing things away and offering more drinks or desert. I might go back for drinks before eating somewhere else but not a good dinning experience.

    Lovely food, lovely staff, the best vegan dishes that I have eaten in a long time, possibly ever, love the art deco furnishings and decor and really enjoyed our experience.

    I took my visiting father here as he is Coeliac. It was wonderful for him to be able to order anything on the menu with safety. The service was very slow. We were the only customers to start with and we were not provided with menus. I went and got them myself after waiting 10 minutes. The slow service continued through the evening. The staff were friendly and cheerful. The food was delicious and good portion size. One of the party ordered the sticky date pudding for dessert which was disappointing. It was dry and not sticky at all. The miso and caramel cheesecake was sensational. I would visit again to try other dishes on the menu.
