Banana bread was very ordinary. Scrambled eggs flavour good but consistency like an omelette. No butter with toast. Prefer tea provided in pot and with chine cups

Was lovely again, took a little longer that usual for food to come out and the bacon was very overcooked, but everything else was great

Food and setting was great but wait staff seemed a little flustered even though it wasn't terribly busy. Served coffee with wrong milk which could have had consequences had we not questioned it. Brought us meals which were not for our table and an incorrect spirit order from the bar. Would suggest that repeating the order back to the guests would be a good idea.

I love NoDo. As a coeliac being able to just order from the delicious menu is amazing. I love the fried chicken burger and always need a donut to take home. Fabulous place for a family get together

Very nice evening. The food was excellent. My only complaint would be the lack of proper wait service. The young waiters were pleasant enough but you can only order at the bar or by phone icon and you have to pay for each course as you order making it hard to get another drink 🍷 at the table during the meal. I would prefer them to take a full order at the start and provide bill for the whole evening at the conclusion. Anyway, very good over all and would not hesitate to recommend.
