Upmarket, yet relaxed café bar. An L-shaped bar is surrounded by a variety of seating areas, all of which you may eat in. It has a mix of furniture from high, posing tables, to dining tables and comfy leather tub chairs in which to relax and linger. All these are set against a background of light wood-panelled walls on one side, opposed by bare brick ones decorated by large poster art. A loose theme based around monkeys is apparent as there is a large drawing of a monkey on the back wall (the space at the back is also called The Monkey Room). A sun-exposed outside drinking area on the pavement completes the picture.
