I visited this establishment in November 2024 as part of a medium sized group for a birthday party on a weekday evening. Live Music While this is a restaurant with a bar, the key attraction is the live blues music. It is worth going just for that even if you do not sit down and eat. My suggestion is that if you do want to enjoy the music, rather than sitting at the diner style restaurant area (situated to the left as you enter), you instead go and sit at the tables view a view to the music stage (situated on the right as you enter). For those of you who have been in New Orleans and the State of Louisiana you will get those southern vibes. Food The food is adequate and competitively priced for what you get. That said, the key attraction is the music. Vegan and vegetarian options are available and the chef is happy to accommodate removing ingredients from dishes to make them vegan. Also there is a vegan burger option. Service The service is quite good and above average for post pandemic customer service standards. The waiters are very helpful and get your order and food out quickly. One thing to bear in mind and adjust your expectations is that this is a very popular place with an almost unique music offering in London and as such when you book a table for 2 hours they mean it. If you want a place where you will occupy a seat for hours, you are better off sitting for a drink near the stage. Worth noting is that the stuff are happy to split the bill for you without you having to do the calculations for them which makes thing easy and straightforward. For birthday occasions bear in mind that the chef does not keep cakes overnight at the kitchen, so any birthday cakes have to be brought when you arrive. Value The prices are competitive and are reasonable enough if you like the music to be good value for money to visit once a month. Atmosphere As mentioned above if you like blues music this is the place for you. While the restaurant occupies most of the premises, the real value is by the bar and the music stage.

We visited for a birthday celebration and were really impressed. The cocktails were really tasty and good measures. The bar is definitely the best visual aspect of this venue. The food we ordered had run out so we reordered and were given a glass of Prosecco each to apologise. The food was really good and big portions. We receive a free birthday dessert with a candle - but no singing (thankfully). The live music was a nice touch.

Absolutely loved going here on Saturday the vibes were amazing and the staff were really helpful. However we had a booth booked for 11pm and didn’t actually get seated until around 11:30 which wasn’t the end of the world but was a little frustrating considering we paid a deposit for it. However after that we loved it and had a great night!

What an amazing experience we had here on Saturday! The drinks and food were so good and we loved the bottomless brunch option, but the best part of the meal was by far the staff. From start to finish, they were attentive, kind and so lovely to speak with and they really made my friend feel special on her birthday. Add that to the incredible atmosphere and vibe around the restaurant, and it really was a wonderful day. Thank you again so much to Natalie and Ruth, who really went above and beyond throughout our entire visit! :)
