"Friendly service from Harry and new server, Heidi. It's a fun atmosphere with some fantastic vegan options.
We came as a family of 4 and felt really looked after. The food was good, but the service was exceptional."

"✨ A Weekend to Remember at the Torquay Branch ✨
We’ve visited the Torquay branch a few times now, and it’s always been our go-to spot whenever we’re in town. But this past weekend was truly unforgettable. We popped in both Friday and Saturday night, and were lucky enough to be looked after by the incredible bar team — Will, Isabella, and Josh.
On Friday, Will and Isabella made us feel instantly welcome with their friendly energy, expert cocktail advice, and genuine warmth. Their service was flawless, and they helped set the tone for a perfect evening.
We were in Torquay for a special getaway — and we got engaged over the weekend! Naturally, we returned Saturday night to celebrate, and seeing Will and Isabella again (alongside Josh) made it feel like we were celebrating with friends. Despite how busy they were, they still took the time to chat, laugh, and make the night feel extra special.
The team works incredibly hard, and it shows — not just in the quality of the drinks and service, but in the atmosphere they create. Thank you all for being part of such a meaningful weekend. We’ll treasure the memories, and we’ll definitely be back!"
