Although the menu is mostly British cuisine, the outside of the restaurant boasts a Mediterranean feel upon entering through the burgundy red doors placed under a Tuscan stone archway. On another door, a charcoal grey French-style door canopy can be seen, adding a touch of glamour to the exterior.

The interiors are no less impressive, there are plenty of tables for guests to dine, complete with stylish striped chairs and marble-effect table tops. There are also chic lights hanging from the ceiling, complete with beige fabric covering the shades, adding a soft touch. On the walls, there is plenty of eye-catching, colour art, bringing a sense of warm and calm to the area.
