"Great food but let down by atrocious service! Visited last night with friends, had been looking forward to this as the menu looked great and the venue looks interesting. On arrival the bar was not busy by any standard and we were met by a sole member of staff who showed us to a table. It immediately became clear that this gentleman was out of his depth both as a bartender and as a server. It took 10 minutes to take a drinks order and even longer to for the 3 drinks to arrive (Guinness, water and a coke). When taking the food order it was clear he was not familiar with the menu, it’s items or the specials. The “beer and burger” deal cards were not out and were not mentioned at all during the service. The food was eventually ordered but the open plan of the of the restaurant meant that we could see the order being prepared and then placed on the hot plate only to sit there for another 10 minutes while he struggled with another tables service. Once the food arrived though it was worth the wait. The burgers were large, juicy and full of toppings, fries were generous in portion size and crispy. I ordered a side of hot wings which were served in a wetter style but still very tasty. Overall we would go back for the food but management really needs to sort out the bar and table service! If the place were any busier it would have been a nightmare."

"I didn't settle the bill, so I can only guess about that. My employers take space in Nova north, and London based colleagues recommended you, so as a firm, I expect we are with you regularly. We were served by a slim young lady who was Greek. She was very very good indeed. My 2 clients are not fussy people, and are long since retired, but they too thought she was fantastic, and I suspect that a hefty tip was given. Don't let her leave!!"

"After not visiting this fried chicken restaurant for a few years due to lockdowns and the pandemic, we decided to book a table as a birthday treat. We made sure to book in advance to secure a table for the time we needed. The restaurant had all the standard COVID prevention measures in place, such as masks, dividers, hand sanitizer, and social distancing, which made us feel more comfortable. The service was good, with drinks being taken promptly and we never felt rushed throughout the evening. Our order included a Korean BBQ burger, Nashville Hot wings, 9 chicken tenders, a buffalo chicken burger, assorted fries and sides. The meal was tasty, with my fried burger not tasting greasy. The cocktails were decent, although the Chicken Rum lacked the flavor I remembered. We ended the evening with Churros and chocolate sauce, which hit the spot. Overall, it was a good experience, possibly helped by our excitement at getting out of the house for the evening."

"We arrived at the restaurant and found it closed. After calling the owner, we were informed that the cook was sick and they had to close for the day. There was no sign on the door and despite having our contact information, they did not bother to inform us in advance. With a 5-year-old and an 80-year-old in our group and heavy rain pouring down, this was very inconvenient. I will not be using their booking page again and cannot recommend the smokehouse. It seems like they may have been closed for a while. Instead, I would recommend trying Bella's across the street, which saved the day. The smokehouse was disappointingly unhelpful."

"My husband and I decided to visit the Oxford Street Kitchen at The Chequers Hotel during the Eat Out to Help Out period. Although we initially booked it as a backup, we were pleasantly surprised by the experience. The Covid precautions, staff service, food quality - everything was top-notch. We never considered dining at a hotel before, but we were glad we gave it a try. This restaurant is definitely a great addition to our list of local dining spots."

"large independent pub serves a series of American style smoked bbq kitchen. beautiful relaxed atmosphere and very helpful and friendly staff. large food proportions. in any case recommend a visit to eat with family of friends whether it is during the week or at the weekend. I visited several times. I recommend everything from the smoker menu. (the brisket of the bark) the loaded fries are almost a meal in itself! the cake option if it is on the menu is a great Sunday afternoon in the afternoon. (See at the time of this visit there is a slight change in the menu since the kovid shut-off, but if they have luck, it could be again)"

"This is a decent hotel with spacious rooms, although the floorboards are quite squeaky and the shower could use some improvement. Nonetheless, the hotel is in a fantastic location, just a short walk from the center, where you'll find plenty of bars and other attractions."
