"Food is delicious my favourite is the sizzling tiger Prawns fajita but everything is super tasty and super fresh and generous in portions too. Cocktails also great. Ale is a great host and chef."

"Finally found delicious Mexican on Chapel, a unique ambience with wood fire to the back and vintage lights & signage thoughout. Food was on point, each dish fresh and tasty. Staff were super attentive"

"Absolutely lovely staff and the strawberry margaritas liter was SO TASTY and really good price. We didn’t think they’d have room on a Saturday night but they did and thank god! Amazing. Definitely need to come back and test out the food!"

"Ordered: 2 of the vego (zucchini, bean & corn tacos), chicken burrito and chips with guacamole. Overpriced for what it is. The filling in the tacos was cold and was made within 2 minutes of ordering making me think it was all already made before hand and sitting out. Chips were good and warm when you first get them but began to taste stale as you keep eating. Chicken burrito good but it’s more like an enchilada (had toppings and beans on it). Not bad, but won’t return. (Sorry for the poor lighting on photos was very dark inside)"
