Meanwhile, another said: "The world needs more of these. Fab colourful spot with a small but complete food menu and stacks of drinks. The vegan burger was a taste sensation. Only a few vegan options but delicious! Couldn’t believe how quick our food was given the length of the queue, service was good and beers were great."
