Amazing space, lovely people, but let down by thoroughly average (if not poor) food on our visit - especially after expectations were high after reading positive reviews of the place.

My companion had the breaded fish and it was okay but not great.
Would not recommend this place, and I hope they stop using veggie dishes as a selling point when they can't accommodate...
