Good food, hygiene's had some notes. Probably fine.

The food's genuinely great and the hygiene issues are "Improvement Necessary" — not catastrophic. Worth a punt if you're not a germaphobe.

BBQ bliss amid chilly vibes.

Smoke on the Waters is like finding a BBQ oasis in the middle of a culinary desert. With their brisket burger that’s juicier than a gossip session, you're in for a treat. The rustic chips are the perfect sidekick, and the atmosphere? Think laid-back backyard vibes with a side of mouthwatering smoke. Just be warned: the full menu isn't available on Saturdays, which means you’ll have to wait for that barbecue feast another time.

Service here is top-notch—like, deliver-your-food-to-your-table level of attentive. Sure, the place can get a bit chilly, but if you're packing a warm coat, you'll be more than fine. It’s the kind of place that will have you planning your next visit while you’re still finishing your plate. Just make sure you book ahead if you're heading in on a busy night; trust me, you don’t want to miss this smoky goodness.
