Spotted this place as we went past on the bus. It looked intriguing so we googled it and ended up going there the next day. What a brilliant use of space. A little 'village' of retail units, small independent shops, loads of street food type eateries, bars and an onsite DJ. Music was great, loud enough but not invasive. It helped to give the place a great vibe. Loads of people sat out chatting, chilling and enjoying life. We stopped at Eight ? For a watermelon and thyme cocktail which was absolutely delicious. We sat outside on comfy armchairs with cushions and just people watched. I could have happily spent more time and will be back to try some loaded fries and some mac n cheese another time. Something to look forward to.
