The Ivy Cafe Blackheath in Lewisham

We went with our baby in a pram and even though they couldn't acvommodate us inside the gentleman who us, Feim, served outside was very helpful, friendly and attentive. Wanted to show our appreciation but he even declined our tip.

Quality foos, excellent service, Carlos was excellelent! Also geat atmosphere and decoration, a true diamond. I would definately go back!

Excellent service and interesting menu with something for everyone, a properly 'special' feel but not snobby or elitist (just don't wear sports stuff). Everything was quick, clean and professionally presented.

A lovely compact restaurant which is great for small gatherings, larger gatherings miss out on intimacy particularly birthday celebrations where company policy dictates that you can take a birthday cake to LOOK at it but NOT to cut it which is slightly annoying to say the least. Food is great, cocktails are even better!

We have eaten here a few times, both the atmosphere and food is always great.. our guests were running quite late but Feim helped us out and he managed to keep us our table, ended up having an amazing lunch. Big Thanks to you sir

Another fantastic meal at Ivy Blackheath. We are regulars and the service from Feim is always first class! He recommended a great wine and even organised our favourite side dish of olive oil mash potato when it wasn't even on the menu. Thanks again

We have been coming here since it opened and as ever the experience is amazing.. especially when Feim is there, he's been there since the start snd just provides the most personal touch.

Went for lunch at The Ivy Blackheath to treat my family. There were six of us, and we just had a good time. The restaurant is just so lovely, really trendy but still intimate. Our server, Janos, was great, really friendly, professional, and just had this relaxed, confident aura that we all just loved (my friend in particular picked up on his energy!) We did the set menu, which was a bit limiting in options, but to be fair, that's kind of the idea, and they will give you the à la carte if you don't want as much choice. The food was absolutely lovely, great presentation and full of flavour. Prices were slightly higher, but still much better than in central London, and bearing in mind the quality of service and how nice it is, I feel it's worth every penny.

Thank you Feim and team 🙂for such a lovely breakfast. So welcoming and friendly, the food was so delicious- will definitely come back with my family again. 👍🏻

Great food great place great staff

Gracias villancicos por cuidar de nosotros, gran servicio. El desayuno era precioso, y el ambiente muy cálido. Muy recomendable

Popped into The Ivy Blackheath with the family over the weekend and had such a lovely time. I’m a big fan of The Ivy in Brighton, but this one has a different charm. warmer, a bit more relaxed, with a really friendly vibe. Our waiter, Janos, was absolutely brilliant. Polite, funny, and clearly knew the menu inside out. He made us feel very welcome and helped us pick some great dishes.His recommendation was spot on (sea bass was superb!). The food was delcious, the service was spot on, and the whole atmosphere made for a really enjoyble evening. So pleased we gave it a try. We’ll definitely be visiting again.

We had a wonderful experience, Inma, the maitre d, gave us a very warm and professional welcome, so did also the rest of the staff. The food is fantastic and the menu is very good value, it has a variety to cater for all type of clients. I have an allergy and they were very good at managing the changes and accommodating my needs. Thank you very much, we shall be back soon.

Excellent choice for breakfast. Service and hospitality pleasant

El Ivy Café Blackheath es uno de nuestros lugares favoritos de almuerzo y brunch de fin de semana en Londres. El personal es siempre muy atento, súper amable y muy acogedor. Siempre es una experiencia fantástica cenar allí. Janos en particular es un miembro sobresaliente del personal. Su genuina calidez y hospitalidad hace que cada visita (regular) se sienta especial. Un restaurante altamente recomendado!

Carlos is great. One of the most professional and attentive waiters/hosts I have come across. Thank you!

The ivy never disappoints. This chains food is always consistent and yummy! Thanks to the staff for making us feel welcome

We have been regulars at the Ivy Blackheath for some years - always an enjoyable treat. We are moving out of the area and will miss the warm welcome always given by Rosie and the great service from Carlos and the team.

Carlos was extremely helpful and attentive. He helped us with all our food and drinks and always with a warm smile. Carlos also assisted us for a booking next week for our 5th anniversary!

Had a lovely breakfast for a birthday, staff were extremely friendly, especially our server Inma, would definitely come again

A lovely evening thanks to the warm and wonderful service from Naim and Pierin at the bar. We’ll be back because of themz

I had a wonderful experience at The Ivy Café Blackheath, and a big part of that was thanks to Inma. She was warm, professional, and incredibly attentive throughout our visit. Her friendly demeanor made us feel so welcome, and she went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. It's rare to find someone who brings such genuine energy and care to their service — Inma truly made our meal special. We’ll definitely be returning, and we hope to be looked after by her again! I visit this Branch quite regularly and the staff are all amazing and I’ve never had a negative experience so I would definitely recommend.

Carlos was a delight, and the meal was delicious.

Lovely spot! The service was great but Carlos was amazing!

Perfect portions and delicious taste

A lovely birthday brunch at The Ivy, Blackheath. today. Really nice service from Jonas. Attentive, friendly and accommodating with our two little boys. Thank you.

Classic breakfast options available. Never go wrong with a full English or eggs royale. The vibes were great with a view of the Greenwich park.

Very nice place to have a catch up with my friend. Staff friendly and attentive. Atmosphere fairly busy but nit loud or uncomfortable. Tasty food- yum!

Tried today the new set menu. The rabbit croquettes were delicious and the profiteroles with ice cream my favourite desserts

A stylish and comfortable cafe. We also liked the breakfast except the sausage, it was very nutritious and delicious. The employees were also friendly, courteous and helpful. Edit: I went again today, this time I sat outside and I enjoyed it very much again.

I wasn’t happy as I took my mother there for Mother’s Day and we got hushed out as quick as we could handed our bill even though we hadn’t even asked for it and then got told we had to leave because there was a big party coming so wasn’t happy

It’s sates on the website that for 3 people allow 2 hrs. It’s a shame on Mother’s Day we were asked to leave at 10.20 for a 9.30 booking. Let’s rush mothers so we get more people to make more money.

I had the pleasure of dining at The Ivy Cafe recently, and I must say, the entire experience was exceptional! From the moment we walked in, Feim provided outstanding service. He was attentive, friendly, and ensured we had everything we needed without being intrusive. Feim really made us feel special. The food was absolutely delicious – every dish was perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. You could truly taste the quality of the ingredients, and each bite was a delight. The flavors were incredible, and the variety on the menu offered something for everyone. What really set this experience apart, however, was the thoughtful extra touch. When we mentioned it was our son’s birthday celebration, the staff surprised us with a beautiful birthday cake, beautifully decorated and absolutely scrumptious. It was such a lovely gesture that made the evening even more memorable. I highly recommend The Ivy Cafe for anyone looking for top-notch food, excellent service, and that extra bit of magic that turns an ordinary meal into an unforgettable occasion. We’ll definitely be back!

It’s a classic ivy experience, maximalist decor, wonderful and friendly service and delightful food. Highly recommended if you are visiting the observatory or in the neighborhood

Stunning breakfast (avocado on sourdough with poached egg, flat white and mango cooler).exceptional service and someone got engaged while we were here 🤩 will come back again for sure

Delicious breakfast, great service and beautiful decor

Great place to go for brunch. Very classy, nice food and lovely service.

Amazing food in a stunning cozy place. But the best part is the staff.

amazing spot to have a celebratory dinner with friends and family! We will be definitely coming back again soon. A massive thank you to the Ivy Cafe in Blackheath.

Ordered from the set lunch menu and was particularly impressed with the tempura prawn starter with fennel, it was delicious! Enjoyed the homemade ginger beer too. Service was great and the decor is bold and interesting.

A cosy little place with nice view and very friendly staff. Very nice ambiance and food. the apple tart is a must try, delicious.

I was greeted at the door, i asked for a coffee and was told they fully respect hard working people but.. I am a Gas engineer working nearby, I was wearing a work fleece, no mud, no dust just as clean as anyone else. I was let in after a brief discussion and offered to sit at the bar rather than a table. I asked can I sit at a table which I did. I felt judged due to my appearance, it's my first negative experience when visiting I've venues. The coffee was nice though.

Such a fantastic location for a delicious meal. As always the team is incredibly welcoming and friendly. We always have a great experience here. Would love to see more on the brunch menu though!!

I celebrated my birthday at The Ivy in Blackheath on Friday evening with my daughter. The food was great, atmosphere was lovely. Our server Inma, was brilliant, she was attentive, kind and always on hand to make sure we were being looked after. Will definitely be returning.

Cute little place. Reasonably priced for breakfast. Brought out a free dessert for the birthday girl! Only marked service down slightly as we were told the booking was until 2:30. Admittedly we paid by 2:10, but we were enjoying talking and taking turns in the group to use the toilet facilities before we left, but they told us we had to leave as the next table was there. I think considering we had the table until 2:30 and had a baby with us who was breastfeeding, they should have let us have until our allocated slot, without making us feel bad to move on. Otherwise all good.

Lovely cafe/restaurant, the food was delicious and the staff and ambience was superb.

Casual, friendly, great food. Love it.

Went to the Blackheath Ivy for wife's birthday and unfortunately not a great eating experience. We've been to this Ivy about 5 times over the years since it opened and always great food, my wifes food no complaints but my burger was dry and un-edible apart from that a great place. Our waiter had no problems removing it from the bill. I would say the burger was cooked previously and put under a heater hence no juicy burger which had just dried out.

We went there for breakfast, the place was stunning. Their breakfast was the best we’ve had in England so far. Service was incredible we had a waiter called Janos and he was the kindest and funniest person ever, he made our day! The manager Karma was very accommodating and helpful too. Highly recommend 10/10!!

Great food! Great service by Janos, lovely staff specially Bonnie so friendly and bubbly, would go back again for sure !

Incredible experience!!! We had a waiter called Janos he was so kind and helpful! Food was really good too ! Can’t wait to go back!!!!!

Another lovely evening spent here at The Ivy Blackheath. Great service from Carlos as always and Tea. Friendly, professional staff who work hard to make the restaurant experience first class.

Absolutely fabulous. Ten of us enjoyed a great night of fantastic food, wine and attentive service. There’s something for everyone here and whilst the place has class and a classic brasserie service style, it’s not at all stuffy. Would like to single out our server, Paloma, specifically for making our night special, thank you very much.

Ivy cafe was an amazing dinner. Carlos our waiter was amazing. So accommodating and easy to talk to. Definatley recommend. And if you visit 100% would recommend carlos as your waiter.

If you'd like a slightly fancy experience without paying an absolute fortune this place is great. The food was really delicious and the drinks too (ordered a mocktail). Would come back for a treat again!

Amazing birthday lunch Fabulous food Fabulous service Just needed 1 more scoop of mashed potato with the seabass 😊

We had a lovely time having a long lunch at Blackheath, made particularly special by our waiter Feim. Food was quick and fresh with good options, Feim was amazing at helping my nan in in her wheelchair and brought us a special celebration dessert after having a chat with us and finding out we were celebrating! Thanks to Feim and the Ivy for our lovely meal

Whilst the Ivy is usually one of the pleasant place to eat, drink & great atmosphere, I would not say the same for this one. I arrived at 10mins before the bar was due to close, 1.10 mins before the venue is due to close. But the staff had already closed the bar & tills! To be honest I am totally shocked, never experienced this low level service from Ivy before. Not all accommodating. Clearly the staff just want to leave early.

A big thank you to Carlos for being so attentive, kind, and helpful. His excellent customer service made my experience much better, and I really appreciate his care and friendliness.

Very reasonably priced. Lovely atmosphere and the food was divine. They have an great team with a special thank you to Carlos. He was amazing. No request was too big or small. He went above and beyond. I would definitely go back just for the service alone. 5 stars.

Carlos was an amazing waiter. Very friendly and knowledgeable. We need more like him!!

We made a spontaneous visit to The Ivy Blackheath this Sunday and were delighted that the host graciously accommodated us without a reservation, for which we were most grateful. We encountered a minor issue with a gift voucher received at Christmas, but the team handled it with the utmost professionalism and efficiency. Tea’s service was truly impeccable throughout, ensuring our drinks were always topped up and that we were well looked after. We very much look forward to our next visit.

I have eating in the Ivy Blackheath many times and it is always great but today’s breakfast was exceptional. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was lovely and the service provided by Janos was fantastic. 10/10

Very disappointing experience Kept waiting outside in the freezing cold (with three little girls) because the table wasn’t ready and children are ‘not allowed to wait near the bar’ Service was chaotic Menus not taken from the table Our table was booked for 3pm - finally received drinks at 3.50pm Children’s food was good and the waiter interacted well with the girls One adult dinner was not delivered but the waiter didn’t notice until we pointed it out Roast dinner was disappointing - tepid and underwhelming The ‘duck’ curry tasted like chicken and was too hot (chilli) for our taste - the almost full plate was not commented upon when collected by the waiter The service improved as the restaurant emptied but a two course meal took almost three hours Definitely a case of style over substance Not recommended

The best cortado I've ever had! And the apple tart was magic. Great place in an atmospheric neighbourhood

Diner consensus: One of the UK’s top restaurant chains! A hidden 5* PLUS + The Ivy offered 5*: food, service and ambience! + Excellent European and Asian cuisine with a wide selection of tasteful, high-quality menu items. + A variety of different menus. + The vegetarian and vegan menu spoilt the picky eater for choices. + Offered “The Ivy Asia” restaurant menu favourites. + Catered to meal modification requests. + Feim, a senior staff member, cheerfully remembered customers and was always hospitable and chivalrous. + Cosy, posh, and intimate ambience. MINUS - Most mains were not enough to fulfil and satisfy. Some even felt incomplete and required a side order. - A la carte menu was overpriced. - Cramped (female) toilets. - The restaurant could benefit from a quick, hassle-free table QR code payment method. ORDER HISTORY Starters: * Zucchini Fritti * Salt-crusted Sourdough Bread * Tossed Asian Salad Mains: * Blackened Cod Fillet * Scottish Smoked Haddock and Salmon Fishcake * Tossed Asian Salad Sides: * Sprouting Broccoli * Green Beans * Creamed Spinach Desserts: * Crème Brûlée * Birthday Dessert

We loved everything about our New Year's Day brunch. The quality of food, ambience and value were all excellent, but the most exceptional feature was the service from Inma. My son has an allergy and the attention to detail Inma showed (including finding suitable alternatives to set courses) gave us a lot of confidence and helped us relax and enjoy the occasion. It was the first day of 2025 but I struggle to believe we will find more friendly or helpful service anyway in the rest of 2025.

We had the absolute pleasure of dining at The Ivy Blackheath recently, and I have to say, it was one of the most enjoyable evenings we’ve had in a long time. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by a warm and friendly receptionist who made us feel right at home straight away. I’ve been to a few Ivy restaurants before, but there’s something about this one that just felt more charming and comfortable. It had this relaxed elegance that made it the perfect setting for a special occasion without feeling too formal or over the top. Now, onto the service – absolutely first-class. Our waiter, Janos, was fantastic. He struck the perfect balance between professionalism and warmth, looking after us with such care and attention. At the same time, he had a great sense of humour and even managed to make my mum laugh, which really set the tone for the evening. He was incredibly attentive, from keeping our drinks topped up to recommending cocktails that looked absolutely stunning – my wife’s drink even came with a tiny snowman garnish, which was a lovely little touch. And the food didn’t disappoint either. I had the turkey ballotine, which was rich, full of flavour, and beautifully cooked. It felt indulgent but not heavy, and every bite was delicious. The presentation was spot on too – it looked just as good as it tasted. To round off the night, Janos surprised my mum with a celebration plate, which was such a thoughtful gesture and really made her evening feel extra special. I honestly can’t fault The Ivy Blackheath – and Janos in particular – for making the whole experience so memorable. It’s been a long time since I’ve experienced service this good, and it reminded me just how important those little touches are.If you’re looking for a beautiful setting, fantastic service, and excellent food, I’d highly recommend giving it a visit. We’ll definitely be back soon!

Lovely birthday experience for my friends 61st birthday . Great food great company

Guests were disappointed with their dishes. One had a steak that wasn’t cooked medium well, and another had the mushroom linguine, which was alright. We were disappointed the original shepherds pie wasn’t on the menu and was replaced with a duck, goose and duck version. Hopefully this is only for the festive season! I had the fish and chips which was decent, hard to get wrong in my opinion! Pricey for the quality. Everyone agreed it wasn’t as nice as some of the other Ivy restaurants visited, unfortunately. We all loved the warm Sourdough!

Have used this restaurant many times and on our last visit to meet up with friends just before Christmas we were asked to leave the table after 1hr 45 mins as our table was required - this despite being surrounded by empty unmade up tables! Have never had this at any other restaurant, it is embarrassing when you are with fellow guests to be ‘asked’ to leave. On querying this ‘rule’ I was told 90 mins for 2 people and 1hr 45 mins for numbers above two - no chance to chat and catch up with friends and family - we had to skip coffee as we were very aware that we might possibly be ‘evicted’. Not a good experience, you somehow feel that you have done something wrong by daring to be enjoying the meal and the company.

Soooooo overrated, we will not be returning. Draft coming in from the door opening and closing. Very tight seating. Had to ask to order a drink as nobody attended to us. Asked for an extra hot latte. Latte was warm and tasteless. The menu was very overpriced. I opted for the soup which was ok. The service was slow. The kids menu does not consist of a set menu so think of everything seperate and again overpriced. My child was nowhere near full on the small serving of sausage and mash (also had to request more gravy) and so we had to purchase more food. Down the stairs buckets were lined up collecting water from a leak. The stairs down to the toilets were cluttered and dirty and on the two occasions of me going down, staff were coming up with food, there was just no room. The worst thing though was despite having the table booked for two hours, 90 minites in, a member rof staff handed us the desert menu whilst stating, “we will need you to be away from the table very soon”. We said we would leave desert then and smiling he took the menus. This left us feeling rushed and left a sour tatse. If we had been served quicker we would have had time for pudding, instead 90 mins in we are being pushed to leave. Food 5/10 Service 3/10 Surroundings 2/10 Value for money 2/10 There are much nicer, restaurants nearby or in London where you would get better service and food for the price we paid.

I had a quick lunch here. Nice Place, Excellent Food, Great Service and the restaurant is located in a quiet and charming area. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious. I were served quickly, yet everything was fresh (except the frozen berry’s, specified on the menu) and perfectly cooked. Will definitely be back.

Lovely place with beautiful decor. The food was delicious but feels so cheeky to charge extra for fries & sauce with a £27 steak. But guess ivys not for the poor!

Very good food. Service was good too. My only criticism is that the tables aren’t big enough and the whole restaurant feels very cramped and tightly packed in.

Kind service, delicious food, and lovely atmosphere! 🫶🏼

The food is always great. I usually have great service but this time I was rushed away due to a large group booking.

Slow service, received wrong table's food, mid warm sides. Decent coffee.

So I had the pleasure of joining my work colleagues here for our traditional Christmas dinner. While I wasn't expecting much, it turned out to be a truly relaxing and enjoyable experience even for a group of six! The atmosphere, even though traditional, was very relaxing and our host was cheerful and friendly. The service was well paced. The food was from a Christmas 3 course set menu that did have a good range and we all found something on it that we liked. I had the steak which was delicious but would have been better if it came with a sauce of some sort. Having said that, there were only empty plates left in the end! A little pricey but we all had such a pleasurable and memorable experience and the service was top-notch. Pleased to say I will be returning to this one with the family in the not too distant future!

As long time fans of the Ivy, we were delighted to meet the newer member of staff, Dean, at the Ivy in Blackheath. He was very knowledgable about the drinks and gave spectacular recommendations, he was also funny and charming and made good bar company.

Very nice place, traditional, quite well decorated, clean, quiet and traditional.

Feim was fantasticccc, very experienced waiter! I enjoyed his professionalism as well as his great sense of humour, which made our meal extra special ❤️

We had an amazing experience at The Ivy, Blackheath, on Sunday morning. It was my Son’s Birthday celebration. The Christmas decor was just wonderful. Such a cosy atmosphere. Our breakfast was absolutely delicious, especially the smoked salmon. Simply the best service we’ve had in ages. We were looked after by Janos, he provided excellent service, nothing was too much trouble. He helped make our visit truly memorable. We will definitely eat here again. Thank you

Unfortunately, I do not recommend it. The menu only had a vegetarian option, so I ordered that, and the waiter gave me the version with shrimp. Fortunately, I don't have allergies and nothing happened, but who else could have lost their health because of such a mistake 😕

Christmas Festive menu is a must have. Delicious choice of food. Colada cocktail is absolutely delicious.

Popped in whilst shopping and had a lovely Lunch Served by Karma who is Professional and polite and brought a delicious smoked Cod, well presented and very tasty Been visiting this restaurant for years and it’s always consistently good Sunday lunches are fantastic but book early or you will be disappointed as it gets busy Susie table 35 13.15pm 1213810

I want to congratulate The Ivy Cafe on its excellent food and service. The personnel are very friendly and helpful—food fresh and 10 out of 10.

Excellent breakfast, simple food, but extremely high quality and cooked to perfection. Friendly and attentive staff, and quality decoration, give this place a special feel. One of the best places in south London to have breakfast.

Here’s an even longer and more detailed version that keeps all the enthusiasm and warmth: We recently celebrated both our birthdays at IVE in Blackheath, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Choosing IVE was the best decision we could have made! From the moment we walked in, we felt the special, welcoming energy of the restaurant. The ambiance struck a perfect balance between elegant and cozy, creating a setting that felt both festive and intimate—the perfect backdrop for a birthday celebration! 🎈😊 Let’s talk about the food. Every dish was a delight! We started with appetizers that were beautifully presented and full of rich, balanced flavors. It was clear that the ingredients were fresh and carefully chosen, and each plate felt thoughtfully crafted. Our main courses were just as impressive, with each bite bursting with flavor. From the quality of the ingredients to the creativity in each dish, you could tell that the chefs take real pride in their work. We finished the meal with desserts that were the cherry on top—decadent, satisfying, and, of course, delicious! It’s rare to find a restaurant where every course feels like a standout, but at IVE, that’s exactly how it was. 🍽️✨ But what truly made the night unforgettable was the exceptional service. Honestly, this was the best service we’ve experienced in London in nearly a year. So many places these days add a service charge to the bill, and sometimes the personal touch seems to be missing because of it. But at IVE, the service felt genuine, attentive, and completely in tune with what we needed to make our night special. Our server was so warm and friendly, and they had the perfect balance of being there when we needed anything without being intrusive. We felt genuinely valued as guests, which is such a rare treat these days. It’s clear that the staff at IVE truly care about their guests, and it made all the difference. They definitely deserved every bit of the service charge, and we were happy to leave them an extra tip on top of it! 😊💖 If you’re looking for an experience that combines delicious food, fantastic service, and a warm, inviting atmosphere, IVE in Blackheath should be at the top of your list. They made our birthday celebration feel truly special, and we couldn’t have asked for a better evening. We can’t wait to come back and enjoy another meal there, and we’d recommend it to anyone looking to celebrate or simply have a wonderful dining experience. IVE is truly a gem—thank you for an unforgettable night! 🥂🎉

I recently visited The Ivy Cafe Blackheath and had a wonderful experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with stylish interiors that make you feel comfortable right away. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our meal.The food was delicious—everything from the brunch options to the cocktails was beautifully presented and full of flavor. I particularly enjoyed the avocado on toast and the freshly made pastries. It’s a great spot for a casual meal or a special treat.

On a quiet Sunday morning I had breakfast here, a very nice granola wth yoghurt. The staff was friendly and the interview tasteful. The only negative: the music. I was hoping for peaceful music for the Sunday morning, classical music for example, but the shouty and restless music I heard was more suitable for a clothing store on Oxford Street. A shame.

Lovely atmosphere and great service. Special thanks to Emma the hostess - who confirmed the booking prior and kindly attended to my request for a table with no air con above and better lighting to accommodate my fellow diners’ accessibility and warmth needs. In addition, we were looked after by Tea for the duration of our meal who was attentive to all of our needs and made the evening extra special by bringing out a surprise birthday cake with candle lit. Excellent team and the food was exceptional! Couldn’t have been any better. Will definitely be going back for our next special occasion. Thank you!!

Friendly service and amazing food every time I visit. Great festive ambiance and beautiful decorations. Looking forward for my next visits

A Wonderful Evening at The Ivy Blackheath My fiancée and I had a truly memorable experience at The Ivy Blackheath. From the moment we arrived, the warm and festive atmosphere set the tone for a special night. The restaurant’s beautiful Christmas tree, adorned with elegant ornaments and twinkling lights, added a magical touch to the sophisticated décor. Our waiter, János, delivered impeccable service—polite, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic. He made us feel valued without being intrusive, ensuring every detail of our dining experience was perfect. For mains, I chose the fish and chips, while my fiancée opted for the shepherd’s pie. The fish was encased in a light, crispy batter, perfectly paired with golden triple-cooked chips and a fresh minted pea purée. Every bite was delicious. The shepherd’s pie was hearty and comforting, with tender lamb and a beautifully golden, creamy mash. Both dishes showcased top-quality ingredients and expert preparation. The evening was a perfect blend of delicious food, outstanding service, and festive charm. We left feeling well cared for and can’t wait to return.

Lovely dinner with friends. The restaurant is very nice, and the food is yummy. The staff is so welcoming and friendly. Thank you!

This was a wonderful experience! The decorations were magical and the food excellent but what made it probably the best dining experience we have had since arriving in London was our waiter Janos! Such a professional but with humour and care. We felt totally spoilt! Thanks Janos!

We just wanted to say a big thank you to the team, in particular, Paloma (apologies if spelt incorrectly) for a wonderful birthday brunch on Saturday 2nd Nov. She was absolutely fantastic, looking after the whole table of 12 brilliantly.

Great place if you’re looking for great food and wine and friendly people!

Delicious food, a lovely atmosphere, great service and a stunning view. 10/10.
