Comments
The main selling point for this restaurant is that it is gay. It is located opposite Compton’s bar in the heart of gay Soho.
What a pity about the food, the staff with attitude, the prices, the poor customer service.
On the plus side the house plonk is quite cheap and the opening times are great for the late night crowd:
- Mon-Thu 8am-5am
- Fri-Sat 8am-6am
- Sun 8am-2am
We had two bottles of red (£10.95 each) and a diet Pepsi (£1.50). One had battered cod (£10.95), one had Thai chicken (£8.95), and three ate burger and chips (£9.50 each).
My advice: Eat elsewhere unless this is the only place open.
