    The new look and feel of the Alma is great. Plus excited that they are now doing #ThaiFood. If it's near the standards that the old Nobody Inn then I'll be delighted!

    Such a good burger! The little outdoor seating area is perfect for a quiet evening pint.

    What's good here? Not the reservation system. Called made a booking for a big group, showed up with the crew and they had no tables. Shitty.

    This place is a bit shit since it came under new management. Decor is drab, bar staff are slow, food is mediocre. What a shame.
