No. 36

Wow wow wow. Ian and the kitchen team have done a tremendous job with the cafe, food is top tier, Great service for FOH as well, even though they were extortionately busy they were able to manage the floor very well, Was in to do a bit of business work over lunch and the place was run fluidly. Amazing 10/10

Myself and a friend went to No.36 for lunch following a recommendation from a friend. We did have our 2 babies with us and being a small cafe we weren't sure we would be able to fit in. I went in to check whilst my friend waited outside with the babies and we were greeted my a lovely waitress - initially she didn't think she would be able to accommodate us but before I left someone left a table by the window. The waitress followed me out and said that a customer was leaving and thankfully the table that they were leaving was large enough to accommodate us and our children without us getting in the way. We were grateful and I went outside to let my friend know that they had space for us. As we returned a lady from another table had moved to the one the waitress was getting ready for us. The waitress politely explained that she had already reserved this table for us and we would not fit at the table that this woman had moved from - the woman was not happy at all. She made us feel very uncomfortable and was very rude and horrible to the poor waitress. Despite her rudeness and hostility the waitress tried to then accommodate this woman at the table that she was demanding as other customers were leaving but this woman had already got a bee in her bonnet and wasn't going to stay. I felt so terrible for the waitress - she honestly did nothing wrong. The woman was clearly having a bad day and took it out on her. The waitress was apologetic despite it not being her fault at all. Once this mean lady had left the atmosphere in the restaurant was lovely, food was delicious and we couldn't fault it. Thank you so much for your hospitality and I hope your future customers will be kinder and more understanding than this lady. I commend the staff with how they handled this. I see that she has left a review and it wouldn't feel right for no.36 to be penalised because of this woman so hopefully this makes the situation clearer. We were a table of 4 and not a table of 2 like she stated on her review.

We went to No.36 after recommendations from our Air BnB hosts. What a lovely little place. The staff were all so welcoming, we were attended to immediately as we arrived. The service was wonderful, the food was delicious and the atmosphere so warm and relaxing. I had the ulster fry and my friend had some pancakes. Both very good options. Highly recommend No.36 to anyone and we will definitely be back again.
