    Incredible Burgers! Ingenious ordering process via an iPad fitted to each table. This is a place everybody should try

    A bar where you can order drinks (or pull your own from your table), food and pick tunes from the jukebox via ipads built into the tables

    Meant to be cutting edge, in the fact u can order remotely from ur table, service not available & experienced a very moody guy who tries 2 fix the ipad table service & has a go if u try 2 use them.

    Delicious food, proper frickles! Service is very friendly, and air conditioning is a massive plus in 30C heat!

    The nachos at this pub are one of the best I have ever had. Definitely a "must try" if you're around!

    New card system for the iPads works well (better than the swiping!). Desserts seem to now be missing from the menu though. Very disappointed!

    The pull-your-own-beer doesn't work easily, and you don't get the full pint. Pricey, but worth a visit once. Food was fine, overall ok but you pay over the odds for what's basically a gimmick

    Burger's a decent size but patty's slightly overdone. Uses a white bun over a brioche bun. Atmosphere's like any other popular pub.

    Starters were pretty rubbish microwaved or deep fried stuff, terrible nachos. Stick to the massive burgers 🍔👍 which were good. Draught beers at the table are a a nice concept but they kept frothing

    Great atmosphere and hearty burgers. iPads that dispense beer are something to be feared.

    This place is ok. iPad thing is good for small groups. Some decent sharing food (great Chorizo). Haven't had a burger but not convinced but the look of them. Big on sport.

    Very similar to The PUB concept of pouring your own tap beer but they've added Kozel, ciders plus Prosecco (for the girls). The first pull can be skanky if it clears the line. Second pull is great.

    Wow iPad innovation at its best. Check out the iCushion for your iPad. If Calrsberg did iPad holders it would be the iCushion. Cushion for your iPad Read more

    Urgh. Poor beer selection, and the burgers are bland and flavourless. I would strongly recommend going elsewhere...

    Nice concept, poor execution; the cards you swipe the iPad with don't work well. Limited range of beer selection, mostly lagers. Food looks good though.

    The burger was an abomination, a crime against humanity that should he punishable by death. All my tastebuds are dead. I will have horrible nightmares about this. You have ruined burgers for me :'(
