What diners say
Recently attended a conference, and overall, it was a great experience. The venue was really flexible, with different spaces spread across three floors, which suited our event nicely. The layout made it easy for people to move around comfortably, and the catering options worked well for our group. The staff were also helpful, making sure everything ran smoothly without any fuss. I'd happily recommend The Fable if you're planning something similar.

Warm environment. -Ok service -Cold food but exciting concept menu. Only thing hot on my plate were the fries. Very small glass of prosecco, if you're going the beer looks like a better choice. I came to try the £24.99 Reef Beef and Bubble and was served the meal withing 20 mins of arriving.

Came here for an engagement on Saturday night and I would just like to say how great the staff is. The bartenders were just on job the whole time, they were kind, quick and polite. There were two lovely guys at the beginning of the shift and afterwards I got served by Diana and Dori. These girls were so amazing. Such lovely girls, so attentive. Shoutout to the staff for making the night unforgettable!
