"Very nice, fairly large, decked area outside, with huge umbrellas to guard against the summer sun or more likely the English rain. And there's sometimes tasty BBQ (with nice veggie options cooked separately on foil) on Saturday and Sunday afternoon early evening. Check beforehand. Great views at sunset over the Roding where you can spot the wrecks, or the old barges and try and work out how to cross the river using those two little bridges you can see in the distance. Frequently changing range of cocktails and mocktails, bottled and now draft beers and stout, wines and lovely fruit flavoured ciders to maintain your interest. Veggie friendly and one or two vegan dishes, overflowing onto the plate. Fabulous, moist, German cheesecake with mandarin orange and other fruit, or maybe feast on some Dutch apple tart or one of their other terrific cakes. Pandemic permitting, on Friday and Saturday Nights perhaps on Bank Holiday Mondays you can enjoy their effortlessly cool DJs on the decks or hear some great musicians. Entry is always free and with the DJs bands playing at just the right volume, you can enjoy the music and still chat without shouting. At other times, owner music lover Derrick, plays a tasteful, eclectic choice of classic soul, funk, rare groove, rat pack jazz thru a top of the range in house Bose Sound System. And lastly there's the cocktails. Oh, those cocktails! Will we risk a Mojito, or stick with another Whisky Sour tonight ? Derrick the boss learned his trade mixing cocktails for 12 years in some of Copenhagen's swishest cocktail bars. Now he is in sunny Barking. It's the only bar cafe in town that makes a real effort to impress and accommodate its patrons' food and drink preferences."

"Avoid! Avoid! Avoid! I don't generally like writing bad comments about places but I felt the need to as I wouldn't want anyone else to experience such bad service as I did. I went just before 8pm and was told to oder online instead. I was told that the food would be ready within 15 mins even though the email said 25 mins. It gets to 8.30pm and I get told by the receptionist that they haven't started on my food yet as they are busy and that it would be another 10 mins. It gets to 8.45pm and she said oh they haven't started on your food yet. As anyone can imagine waiting nearly an hour is unacceptable especially when you have gone into order and collect! I decided by 9pm I had enough and wanted my refund, which then took another 30 mins to sort out. Absolutely shocking and unbelievable! A few other points to also mention: 1- The receptionists have 0 customer service experience and are very rude. 2- Another customer who had ordered online, called over the phone at least 3x times just to find out where their order was. They lied and said it was on the way when the order was just making its way out of the kitchen. Saddest part is that they were laughing about the customer in a very rude manner 3- Another customer came in and ordered 10 mins AFTER me and got his food within 15 mins or ordering! When I challenged them about it, they made up a pathetic excuse trying to say it was something else which didn't make sense. 4- Not even an apology. Poor customer service, and I would even go as far as to question the legality of their employees there, but that is a matter for the correct authorities to investigate. I would honestly Avoid this place and would not recommend it. Don't waste your time or money. There are lots of other honest, decent places."
