  “I had a booking here for the champions league final around a month in advance. The day before the final, they changed the required arrival time to 3 hours earlier than originally agreed, with the excuse being that they'd simply "received a lot of enquiries". Really poor management.”

  “Brilliant venue for hosting a pub quiz! The staff were friendly and incredibly helpful, the atmosphere was fantastic, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Great drinks, great vibe, and I’d happily host another event here again.”

  “Went there at a quiet time so can only judge on the time I was there, nice bar staff, nice outdoors seating, a pint of Jubel £7.20 so not the cheapest for the area, but a cool place nevertheless”

  “Food was great, friendly service and atmosphere...and they put the saints game on a second projector for me even though I was the only saints fan in a sea of Arsenal fans, so has to be 5 stars.”

  “The food here is excellent and the pub itself is a decent space, albeit a bit loud. Most customers seemed to be having a good time there and a number of us were enjoying my friend’s birthday. Most of the staff were nice enough. Unfortunately, that was overshadowed by the unacceptable behaviour of the bloke who claimed to be the owner. He was angry all night, kicking off at people for the most marginal of slights. At one point he was angry at someone asking politely to turn the football up. I was completely sober, yet he managed to throw a tantrum about my order of water and a lucky saint. Then he told one of my friends her voice was too “screechy” (how else can you order while the football’s on?) Finally, he tried to start an actual, physical fight with another of my (admittedly drunk) friends. Despite numerous attempts at deescalation, he wouldn’t let it go and shouted and shouted at everyone, eventually having to be restrained by the other workers. The embarrassing debacle lasted for about five minutes, although it felt like longer. I’ve never seen this kind of behaviour from any bar staff before. Even other observers noticed the shoddy behaviour. Won’t be going here again, which is a shame because I would drag myself through a thousand miles of broken glass for that celeriac burger. But if it meant encountering that prat at the thousandth mile, it wouldn’t be worth it.”

  “First time here and the goal was trying out eatlagom, menu was relatively small compared to some other burger spots ive been to but to no fault of there own as i could see that the kitchen was quite small so having rotating menu was the best option in terms of what there working with. im only going to talk about the burgers though the potatos are good. the lamb burger was cooked as it should be was nice tender and flavourful with a mix medally of flavours with the sauces and peppers used it really cam across as an elevated kebab in a bun. the fish burger was also great no fish o fillet vibes here just a nice tenders almost melty fish in your mouth witha crunchy batter and great tartar sauce that pushed everything up a notch with out just being carried by the sauce. I hope to return again when they have the spice bag and brisket. 4.5 burgers out of 5 only a half star off due to no mention of the rotating menu id recommend having the days/weeks options mentioned somewhere either by instagram announcement. or some variation of the qr code menu with actively being at location.”

  “Can't fault this place. Met a friend for some drinks and a burger as I've wanted to try the burgers here for a long time and I wasnt disappointed. The burger was juicy, succulent and very well seasoned. Perfectly toasted bun and the the toppings really "topped" it off. The skin on fries were also very well seasoned and very very moreish. I wish I ordered the loaded fries or a side of chicken as I was still hungry after. Another option would be to double up the burgers to make it a bit more filling. Maybe I'm just greedy. Either way the burger was delicious. The atmosphere in the pub was electric due to the rugby on the TV. Also the football was on another. The daily happy hour was a nice touch aswell between 6 and 7pm every day where selective drinks are a little cheaper. I would definitely go back to try a different burger and the loaded fries”

  “Got a really nice vibe from this bar. Was a fairly quiet Sunday lunchtime. But the place just gave you the feeling it comes to life when it's busy. The staff were really nice. And the food, from Filthy Bun... OMG! Amazing! Worth a visit for the burgers for sure!”

  “We came here last Sunday to watch the footie (the less said about that the better). We found it to be spacious and felt like they had thought about the Covid rules and really stuck to them. The screens were big for the match, the service was quick and thorough and the house wine was nice. We didn’t eat as we had just been for a roast but it looked like burger and chips sort of deal nothing fancy. There’s an area out front for smoking. It wasn’t overly busy at that point although I know it can get busy here. I wouldn’t say this is a family place and I couldn’t tell if it was dog friendly but certainly a good place to come for a boozey drink with friends or to watch the football”
