I was actually intrigued by the lighting and the small private booths. It felt like it was more designed for couples with the vibe it sets. I personally liked the decor and just had a drink from the bar. The food menu did not seem to attract my attention and just seemed abnoxiously expensive. Even their drinks were on the higher end. They do have other events like comedy or live music, which might be of interest for others to check out. In fact, they had a comedy show going on the night i visited. They are located in the second floor of the Curtin house.

We celebrated my wife’s birthday at The Toff in Town, and it was nothing short of perfect. From the moment we booked, Beth, the incredible floor manager, went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. She didn’t just take care of the booking — she genuinely cared about making the night special for all of us. Beth’s attention to detail, warmth, and professionalism made us feel like VIPs. She made sure our group of friends were comfortable, well looked after, and having a great time the entire evening. We’re so grateful for the experience and will absolutely be back. Massive thanks again to Beth — you made it a night to remember! 🙏

Everything was great until stag discovered that I don't drink alcohol. Surely I must be an extreme overhead to the Toff management because they're not as much profit in non drinkers. I state this reasoning because, Einstein Jr Partridge family entity#1
