Service was very good and friendly given how busy they were. Flatbreads (pizzas) were very tasty as were the zucchini chips. Very good quality cocktails from those who had them. Excellent place for pre-dinner, pre-theatre or just drinks.

A real gem this place, with a great selection of drinks and the best flatbreads to go with it. Great staff (continuously - we know that place for over a decade now), and consistent quality. Plus a great view over Swanston Street from the balcony.
