    It was hot as the air conditioner wasn’t working and the bar staff made no attempt to relocate us to a more suitable area. The bar staff were not great. They acted like we were an inconvenience. The guy at the front table was dressed down. We weren’t approached past our initial drink order which they weren’t happy about taking.

    This venue has an amazing view . Garlic prawn pizzas were heavy sour dough type with too few prawns and covered with a field of green leaves … yuk . Music was a bit loud . Service staff were lovely . Champagne glasses are way too tiny … Definitely go along though . The pepperoni pizza was nice … don’t expect amazing food … just enjoy the view 😉
