    Can't recommend this highly enough! Food was outstanding, and for fine dining, quite a lot of it! You won't go hungry! A good balanced wine list, and friendly competent staff. Everything was just amazing and my friends and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Michelin star quality for better value!

    No atmosphere and it was a shame the chef didn’t come and introduce himself and talk to his customers. Wine was ordered and was poured into our glasses without one of us being offered to test it. The waitresses were attentive with the meal service. We felt there was not a good variety of food on offer. We were so looking forward to visiting The Chef’s Table but will not be visiting again unfortunately .

    Stunning food at a really reasonable price for the level of quality. The Jerusalem artichokes were a particularly enjoyable dish unlike anything I’d eaten before. Wine flight excellent value too with two glasses of sparkling wine to begin! With only ten covers, as a diner you just have to prepare yourself for how intimate the restaurant is. The modern music playing disguises conversations from other tables well and a table of six provided plenty of atmosphere but I suspect that if five couples were dining it might feel a little intense. Overall a brilliant meal though; my favourite meal for a few years.
