Came in for lunch with mates. We all had chicken schnitzel with mushroom sauce which was had a nice crispy coating and was moist. Chips were perfectly seasoned and the steamed veggies were nice and al dente. The nachos were ok also. Food and drink prices were reasonable for the area. Service was very nice and friendly, however food took forever to come out. I really didnt like the layout either, bar looked amazing and modern but overall layout of tables and seating looked a tad haphazard IMO

Had a work lunch. The Venue is lovely and the staff were friendly and the prices reasonable especially for Christmas. I had the lamb ragu, very nice and was a good price. A colleague had the Duck Reuben, looked amazing and they said it was very nice. The only criticism was the ordering with the QR code, it was confusing in a group setting and it wasn't explained that we could have ordered at the bar. We had to check several times if the order had been received and was correct, the response was " it's a third party app mate we have no control". Very frustrating. But this was the only detraction.

We went to a Hens drawing session there, and it was really fun. The drinks were yummy (I had a few cocktails), and the hosts and model of the drawing session were really welcoming, fun, and friendly. I 100% recommended it for any girl who wants to have a low-key but fun hens celebration. Didn't have a chance to eat as we booked another place for lunch.

I recently attended my work Christmas party here, and I was thoroughly impressed. From start to finish, the experience was fantastic. The food was delicious, with a variety of options that catered to everyone’s tastes—each dish was flavourful and well-prepared. The service was exceptional; the staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure our group was well taken care of throughout the evening. The atmosphere was perfect for our event—lively yet comfortable, with just the right balance of energy to make it festive. The only downside was the music. The DJ was a bit too loud, making it difficult to have conversations, so we did have to ask management to turn it down. Thankfully, they were very responsive, and it quickly became more manageable. Overall, I had a great time and would definitely recommend this spot for any occasion. I'll be looking forward to my next visit!

The Arthouse is our local at work and it's a pretty nice pub. Lunchtime atmosphere is nice, but it's better in the evening, especially with live music. Love the patio! The service is really hit and miss, though- we've ordered together at times and had people wait 20 minutes for their meal or not get it at all (during lunch!). Staff are mostly friendly. The food is quite good for pub fare...and the daily specials are great, wing Wednesdays is a fav.
