    A lovely meal with a view of the Hapenny Bridge that I asked for. Good value, plenty of space between tables and a friendly waiter.

    Beautifully decorated in true Ivy style, this one has a great layout, which makes it more personal for a couples date than some, which can be a bit cafe like. Felt food choice was a bit limited, but enjoyed the cottage pie- wouldn’t normally order that. Service was perfect- attentive but not over the top- really enjoyable evening!

    The food was absolutely to die for and the whole experience was lovely! I got the ham hock to start (it was so beautiful and rich) my partner got the chicken terrine (I had to try a little bit and safe to say it was delicious) we both had the duck leg for main. It was delicious, super flavorful and the mash at the bottom soaked up all the jus from the duck, absolutely Devine. We shared a sticky toffee for dessert, and it was super tasty but for me the best but was the candied almonds that came with the ice cream at the bottom. Over all super lovely experience and I can't wait to come back again.
