Caxton Arms — Restaurant in England

We visited Coppa for lunch and booked a table in one of the outdoor ‘igloos’ (essential to book in advance, you’ve no chance of getting a ‘walk-in’ igloo). The restaurant itself looks really funky, great design, and was packed. The front of house staff looked really presentable but were flapping and having difficulty dealing with demand. I wouldn’t recommend eating in the main restaurant if you want a good conversation with someone, as it was very noisy, but it was a Saturday lunchtime after all. The igloos were superb, really cosy inside and warm, and great funky music. Far better if you looking for an intimate lunch/dinner. There were blankets to put over your legs incase you got a bit chilly, but didn’t really need them as it was toasty. The service was surprisingly good, despite being so busy. Our waitress was great, very helpful and personable. I wish I’d remembered her name! Reasonable selection on the menu, and cocktails etc I had a delicious superfood salad with chicken. Loads of it and very tasty. And some lovely puds too I’d recommend if you want a ‘novelty’ dining experience in one of the igloos. (Remember to...

Anyway thank you...

Don’t waste your time booking a table as they cancelled our booking to prioritize regulars, we had a stag party, with a table booked to see the football, and with days notice they have cancelled our booking for other people, we specifically booked this table for our friends stag with the football in mind, which the owners were aware of as this was all previously discussed, now it is near impossible for a table booking on what is already us trying to make the best of a post COVID stag-do! I am outraged to leave us with nowhere to go this last minute because some regulars can take away bookings when they desire, don’t bother booking in advance for events because there is every likelihood it is cancelled with...
