Maya W. • July 11, 2012The cafe(teria) in the basement is SUPER cheap

Day Lynn B. • March 1, 2012Gotta try their chai (can get a cup of it at the juice bar) at least once. Super spicy-dont forget to add milk-and not for the faint at heart, but extremely good. How chai SHOULD be!

Richard S. • March 15, 2015I went with the fish and chips this time. Nice and crispy! My wife had the lamb stew and the lamb was tender and the broth was delicious. Burgers and big, tasty and they have some great beers in tap

Danielle O. • June 17, 2013If your mind wanders, let it lead you here.....Quiet Village (one of the best cocktails on the menu).
