11/11/2025: We enjoyed delicious cocktails made with peaty Connemara whisky, professionally prepared, and savored refined small plates of lamb and beef, as well as a delectable dessert. The price reflects the quality; I highly recommend it.

17/01/2026: We had afternoon tea and it was absolutely gorgeous. We were celebrating two big birthdays and were really well looked after from start to finish. A big applause to Matt, who did a fantastic job and was on top of everything at all times. He even noticed us looking his way as he passed with drinks and immediately came over with the drinks menu, explained what he had just served in case we wanted the same, and confidently recommended his personal favourite. Amazing upsell, Matt! He also directed us straight to the bar afterwards, making the whole experience seamless. Outstanding service and a lovely celebration – highly recommended.

18/12/2025: As always food was tasty and had soul,simple and just cooked on point. If your vegetarian your goosed!! Lovely service if a little disjointed at the end of our meal which is understandable with tables coming in and tables leaving but it's such a relaxing room and somewhere u can enjoy your meal in peace.its bloody hard to run a restaurant and for isaces to be doing it so long and successfully it's a credit to everyone involved..bravo 👏

21/12/2025: One of my favourite pubs in the city! The beer garden is huge and such a vibe during the summer. Wide selection of drink. The (I think) Australian bouncer is so lovely and funny!!

08/12/2025: Our little troupe of geriatric walkers booked our Christmas night out in "Deep South" and from the first contact to the last we were met with outstanding hospitality and real appreciation for the custom. As the organiser, I have to give a special mention to Alannah who was absolutely superb and for whom no detail was too small, even though we were only a group of 13 and there were some big company nights on as well. We were also asked if anyone had any special dietary requirements. As a party venue I would highly recommend "Deep South" and, whoever is organising next year's gig, I imagine there will be no complaints if we return for the next instalment.
