“The best experience. Went with my partner for my birthday. Paid for a delicious chocolate with strawberries mini cake. Amazing service. There was a musician playing lovely songs creating a nice and peaceful environment (even played a happy birthday tune!). Great views of the city. Buffet was nice. The staff are super friendly. Would highly recommend and go back with a group of people. Great value for money too - paid extra for a window view but it wasn’t busy (went on a Monday).”
