“ I only stopped in for one drink, just to check the place out. I had the 'Left 4 Dead' cocktail and it was hilarious (to me) carrying a literally on fire drink between my legs in my wheelchair I'm sure the staff would have carried it over for me if I asked, but where's the fun in that? Will definitely come here for a proper night out. ”
