What our guests are saying
“We booked for our Mum’s 75th birthday. Asked for a window seat which we got. Service was impeccable, an excellent variety of food on the menu, all of our food was delicious, great value for money. Our food came out quickly and all at the same time. The staff were lovely, asked if we were too hot and needed blinds pulled down. We asked for plates, knife and a lighter which they brought out promptly. Thank you 8 Knots staff for a truly memorable day!”
