I have just had my wedding reception in the function room and all I can say is wow! The room - it was gorgeous,… modern, stylish and spacious. The food - the food was absolutely amazing. The hot buffet was just unreal. Different pizza toppings, parmos and the wedges, pasta, dips etc. Without a doubt the best parmo I’ve ever tasted. The staff - every single staff member made the whole experience a whole lot better. They were friendly, so so helpful and even went as far as to help prepare to pack up all my decor.
Fash - thank you for making our day so special. We appreciate everything
