My friends and I visited Izakaya Potts last night our booking was for 6pm at 7pm we were given the bill we were still eating and drinking our wine 5 minutes later the attendant told us they needed the table I said we're still drinking our wine 10 minutes later they forceably asked us to leave as they had people waiting we hadn't even ordered dessert.

The staff are friendly and courteous. If you book early you may be able to secure the outside tables which would be a lot quieter than the being seated inside which is loud if busy. We would appreciate that the staff try to cater to their patrons that would prefer to have some after dinner drinks to wind down their evening. As soon as you have finished your meal, the table is cleared and there is no offer from staff to enjoy a cocktail, martini or coffee. They are hovering to entice you to leave. We left just after 9.
