After a "practically perfect" night out care of Mary Poppins, me and my 2 theatre going friends came in here looking for drinks. Hey Lucy seemed a bit crowded and the "people love us on yelp" sticker on the window of Kit Kat beckoned to me and this 2 star review is purely based on my experience in coming here in the hopes of having a nice drink or two.
I know that Kit Kat is a predominantly food based location and not a bar or a lounge of sorts, but being on this stretch of King Street they really should have been more accommodating to people looking for a drink. We were asked to sit at the bar when there were tables ready which clearly were meant to be occupied by hungry people only and the lack of a proper cocktail menu was also a disappointment They did have a wine list that seemed pretty comprehensible but I never got a close look at it. I asked the bartender to serve me up a "not too sweet" martini and she did a good job on that front, but tasted like a cough syrup which I was in no mood for unfortunately.
Service overall was not as friendly as it should have been and that was a disappointment as well.
I'm sure Kit Kat has the ability to dish out a proper evening experience for a proper dinner, but just as a location to come to for a drink I give it 2 stars with the prospects of visiting again for food high.
