“Not bad considering it is a chain”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 April 2012

All meals that I have eaten here have been ok but not outstanding. It is nice to sit outside when it is warm and sunny.

“Colourful Restaurant”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 March 2012

Food and service is excellent in a very colourful environment - attracts an alternative and colourful crowd. Very much a party restaurant - music is good but, very loud. Very central location on Old Compton Street.

4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2008

This place is best for breakfast, especially on a sunny day. Staff are fabulous and it is really child-friendly (we go regularly with my 2 year old). Have eaten lunch there also; food is good but not outstanding. We go back time and time again because of the atmosphere and the wonderful staff.
