This place is amazing! Visited with a friend tonight and had the spring rolls, mac 'n' cheese and the chocolate brownie...can't fault a single thing, was amazing!

Have visited this restaurant on several occasions and have never been disappointed. The staff are very friendly and cant do enough for you. All hygiene is catered for, with sanitisers... read more at the door as you enter. The food is of very high standard and caters for all different tastes. It is well presented and very professional looking. Difficult to pick a favourite but the breaded brie, starter, is definitely a winner, along with the haggis scotch egg. The burgers are definitely recommended as well as the chicken Kiev/macaroni for the main and If you have room after those, try the chocolate brownie. The cocktails are just amazing, and can say, have had a few of them, LOL! Would definitely recommend you eat here as you are sure to NOT be disappointed.
Very attentive staff. Main courses great. Sides delicious. There was a slight issue with our bill being over charged but after an email - William very swiftly rectified the issue... read more and we received a very prompt refund. Definitely worth a 5* review for that.

Visited the Back Street several times with my wife. It is now our 'go to' choice of all local restaurants. Menu changes regularly and have always been impressed with whatever... read more we have ordered. They also have a good selection of cocktails and wine. We are going back next week for the Steak Night which has proved to be an excellent meal and also excellent value for money on a previous visit.
Whether you fancy just a more refined dish from their menu or just a burger or a mac n cheese, you won't do much better than this place.

The family at AtlasAdventured highly recommends dining here!
We arrived right at the dinner rush on a Saturday night, with no reservation, after being refused service at 3 different prior... read more restaurants because they were too busy. They quickly found a table and sat us right away. Just for that we were so thankful! Our server, Rebecca, was just so great. She gave great recommendations and was so amazing with our toddler. Our daughter still talks about their chats! The drinks were strong and tasty, and our food was delicious. There is a kids menu available. Everything we ordered tasted amazing, perfectly seasoned, and it’s obvious they use fresh ingredients. Great menu selection, and large drink menu. I highly recommend the Breaded Brie, Chicken Kyiv, and the Baked Alaska! We ended up being there right up until they closed and never once felt rushed. Shout out to Susie and Kacey who were so nice. I love seeing good teamwork in a restaurant, and these girls worked great together. Thank you all for a lovely and memorable experience. We can’t wait to visit again.
