    We had breakfast & it was simply delicious. Portions were generous, coffee was superb. The venue is beautiful & the atmosphere is so welcoming. Our waiter Angus was a delight to deal with & we never felt rushed , nothing was too much. We then went & shopped in the amazing clothes section & all in all 100% ❤️ we’re coming back & we now have found a little bit of Paris ! Thank you also to Pauline & John Olivia & Catherine

    The food and cocktails were standout, there wasn’t a dish we didn’t enjoy (and we tried 3/4 of the menu!). The kingfish and chicken pâté were our favourites, and the oysters were really fresh and zingy. The service was efficient and friendly, and our food came out quickly. We agreed that next time we would choose a table in the bar over the main seating areas, as the converted ‘cells’ don’t get a lot of natural light. However, if you’re looking for something cozy and intimate these rooms certainly fit the brief!
