Organic, plant-based cuisine served in a restaurant featuring colourful, retro decor & a juice bar.

👍👍 Since day one of going to this beautiful, stunning and peaceful establishment with my husband, we have become regulars and found the homemade purees and cocktail designs devine. The knowledge of flavours, alcohol and quality service from the owners is impeccable. Tell them what you enjoy...or if you...

👍👍 Very nice, high quality food, good customer service and lovely comfortable decor. It was a cold day so heating could have been turned up a little. Despite this we will return again as it seems the best option for breakfast on Ashley Road.

👍👍 Proper nice place, food was perfect! For someone who doesn’t go for spicy food this was lovely! The quality was unreal and prices are really decent. Staff were really friendly and really polite. Will definitely come back! The drinks selection is quality as well! If you’re a Rum drinker you’ll love i...

Subtly lit lounge bar with exposed brick walls and plush red banquettes, hosting regular live music.

Warm, rustic-modern spot offering Mexican cuisine such as elevated street tacos plus margaritas.

Smart bar chain with a cocktail list, a menu of global classics, and contemporary decor.

Elevated standby with wood furnishings, spotlighting traditional open-flame African cooking.

👍👍 Never been here before but have passed many times and always wanted to try it out as live just round the corner. This Sunday was my chance. Came highly recommended by my neighbor so we had a walk round for a Sunday roast. First off, it's small and cosy, and was busy as to be expected. Only a few tab...

Lively chain bar that serves sweet, sour and spicy cocktails, and offers mixing masterclasses.

👍 Only 4 stars, I'm afraid, for the same reason as I didn't tip at the time. Let me be clear: the initial welcome was great. They were very helpful and placed us in the light (my wife has poor sight). The service was excellent and can't be faulted. The food!! Gosh! It was possibly the best Thai food...

Polished choice with a local menu highlighting seafood & meat plates, plus wine & unique cocktails.

👍 It’s a great little bowling alley, much better than the bigger ones. The arcade is great too (big arcade fan) and I really like the card system they have which I haven’t seen before outside of TikTok… However, you need to top the card up with £10 to get the ‘bonus credits’ otherwise you don’t get...

👍👍 Fun night with a live band! They have a great (good quality) drinks selection and attentive bar staff. The only thing I'd recommend they do is dim the lights when the band are on to create some ambience. Would come here again!

Cocktails, beer & wine offered in a lively, open-air venue with greenery & a retractable roof.

Eclectic cafe/deli with beach-side terrace and contemporary glass-fronted restaurant with balcony.

🫤 All was going well, until it wasn't. The air-condition started spraying water over the floor. We tried our best to capture the water in glasses, but the management took ages to shut off the system. When asked what they would do to the disruption of our evening they offered a round of drinks (for a p...

🫤 A group of us ladies (40+ years) went to Canvas on Saturday night for the first time. The venue itself is really nice and the perfect size for a good atmosphere. Bar staff were quick so no long queues and plenty of seats to chill out. Sadly the DJ was super annoying. Continously 'mixed' songs and ga...

😠 I got there with my partner and experience was very poor I must say. Sharer for 2 people which cost £20. You get one peace of chicken (small) one peace of salmon (small) little pot of curry 3 salad leafs and two sides in my case it was chips and coleslaw both been not more then for one person. They...
