    3 Stars for the Pod Toilets!
    Current
    Looks fantastic, toilets are devine (except the teeny tiny mirror action - how are you meant to put your lippy on with that?) and the place is "other worldly" but I will have to disagree with the other posts and say the food is horrible! make that with a capital H.

    We were a table of 6 and all had 3 course meals and not one person enjoyed it. Although it was very entertaining and we had a great laugh. Simple fact is they try way way too hard to be different. Different is good but different has to taste good too. I love new flavours but theirs simply did not work. The cold corn chowder was not a hit, it looked and smelt like (you can guess). My grilled halloumi cheese with champagne sorbet was probably the best of the bunch. The mains were pretty uneventful but certainly nothing great. Although the "soft" boiled potatoes in rice paper was a brilliant laughing hit, you would have to taste it to get the full idea.

    Dessert was actually good but the portions so tiny that I thought they must have been trying to give me a hint that I needed to go on a diet. The chocolate mouse layered with air looked great - however since half the glass was filled with air it was not the satisfying yumyum I imagined.

    So we had a good night and a good laugh but I will not returning or recommending Sketch to anyone (I like).

    Way overpriced because the food did not live up the the atmosphere. My opinion - just drop in to use the loo and give the restaurant a miss!

    well they do have nice loos indeed, albeit a bit confusing (on how to get in that is). I haven't tried the food, but now you're making to really wanna go. It can't be that bad ;-)

    hehe it was a while ago so maybe they have changed the menu...but I'm not willing to test it out!
