"Food was good here. Service, I would describe as ‘chipper’ and not in a good way. We made a same day online booking via this Google listing. On arrival we were immediately told off by the waiter for doing this. “What’s the point?” he says. I would normally let this slide but as I’ll go into later, it created problems afterwards. The waiter checks his paper list of bookings and it seems we aren’t on the list, but at least there was a table free so we managed to get seated and order some food and drinks. Food overall was good. The meats were well cooked especially the roast pork and char siu pork and the sides and small plates were tasty. You would get better/more authentic chicken karaage and gyoza at other places, though. We had a cocktail each afterwards. (Waitress didn’t seem to understand what a ‘long drink’ is. Decor was cool and quirky. Tables were packed fairly closely together. Good for parties but not so much for romantic/couples dining. While sitting at the table I get an email from Quandoo saying the restaurant has marked us down as ‘no show’. It turns out Quandoo handle the Google Maps booking integration. I reply to Quandoo saying that we are sitting inside the restaurant so clearly they are mistaken. The following day Quandoo follow up by email asking for proof of payment in order to correct the fact that we are marked as no show on their system. It’s hardly worth doing so but I don’t like to have a black mark on Quandoo’s system when I actually care a lot about the health of the hospitality industry and never cancel bookings late if it can possibly be helped. (Good thing I wasn’t asked for card details when booking or I would be having to chase up a refund from Quandoo… All this digital paperwork from Quandoo could be avoided if the restaurant used the booking system as it was intended to be used. If you don’t want to deal with same day online bookings then do something about it in the booking system and let people know instead of telling them off when they arrive! Quandoo doesn’t have a particularly good reputation either, and in fact, I would strongly advise management to review their contract with Quandoo and possibly switch to a different booking service. It might save you a few per customer on bookings."

Nice place. Great whiskeys. Food was good. Will definitely go back.

Despite sounding amazing the food was bland. The drinks however were good.
Romaria
Second... or maybe third time I went. Great food, fantastic (and unusual) Japanese whiskies... I'll definitely go back.

Nice food and place was ok. A bit chilly at times. Service was good at times and sometimes you waited a while. But generally a good night out.

Been there with my Dad for his birthday. He's a huge Whiskey lover and they talked us through their range of amazing whiskeys to find the best for each person. Loved it! Thanks!

Really fun, small restaurant with great food (very different dishes and amazing whisky menu. The cocktails are also really good. Staff super friendly we were there on a Saturday (busy! evening and we never felt rushed and staff had time for us!

We really enjoyed our night here at Bull in a China Shop. Great cocktails in a socially distanced but well heated outdoor area, and the food was superb. I'm not usually a fan of modern Asian fusion as it can be executed poorly, but this place does it justice. We had bao buns with crispy pork and hoisin sauce, the bbq platter (succulent babyback ribs, chicken wings and rosemary chips), and the Peking rice boxes as mains. Everything was cooked perfectly and so tasty. I could eat their hainan rice every day for the rest of my life. Definitely pay this place a visit!

2017 Review: I wrote a 5 star review for Bull in A China Shop in Jan 2016 that is still there below this updated review. I've been again recently (September 2017) though and the changes are really not for me so I've revised to 2. The menu has changed. Instead of a large plate of delicious ribs in 2016 it's more tapas sized serving, with a majority of the plate as decoration and a minority as food. We had the pidgeon, duck, some veggie plates and the chicken and the chicken was the only one that was sans blood and edible for me. I left very hungry, and quite unhappy no longer a food offering for the mouth and stomach (only for the eyes). Food: 1/5 Service: 4/5 Drinks: 3.5/5 Value for money: 2...
