Rooftop review roundup: This was a treat! Claims to be a rooftop garden – which it is… lovely seating area to sit and sip your cocktails in a fun environment but that’s not why you’d go – on the roof is a glass walled room that is an old skool disco with music to match! I went for a drink and stayed dancing till it nearly closed. Everyone was just so happy, the drinks are cheap but the service is brilliant. Welcome with such warmth unlike ‘clubs’ you can go to. Definitely worth a boogie! Note doesn’t open till later in the evening.
