NineB is a lovely little hidden gem - lovely food, friendly helpful staff all in an attractive, clean environment- all in a central location. We took our son here for his 21st birthday and we all thoroughly enjoyed his evening with him. He rec’d a little bday plate with a chocolate/cake and alcohol shot after our meal - which was a nice touch, many thanks!
