I took my sister here for her birthday lunch as a treat when she came to London to visit me. A rare occasion for the 2 of us to meet up on our own. I had read the reviews but never been here so thought it would be a good place for us to have a chilled-out healthy, light lunch.
We had to wait an extremely long time for the food to be served. When it did arrive, to our great astonishment, the venison ragu with pasta that my sister ordered had no venison ragu. It was just pasta with some flecks of vegetables. And the fish cake that I ordered was dry and burnt on the bottom, served with some very limp tasteless Swiss chard. All-in-all a very disappointing, tasteless meal for both of us.
We got a measly £3.50 taken off the bill for the inconvenience of being served a meal that wasn't what was ordered. I had expected a minimum of free desert and coffee and for the pasta to be taken off the bill altogether. But we were actually so desperate to leave that I was sort of relieved to just go.
I was so embarrassed that I had taken my sister to such an awful place on her birthday. I've lived in the neighbourhood for more than 20 years and have never had such a terrible meal. There is no need for me to ever give them another chance as there are too many other good restaurants nearby. I intend to take my sister to one of those places when we next have an...
Read moreNot good value, charged £2.50 for two very thin, small slices of focaccia bread (which had to be ordered as an extra with one of the main dishes rather than being included). Two egg dishes, two coffee's, two extras (halloumi) and two of the focaccia portions (so £5 for the two portions), total bill ~£50. No problem with expensive brunch if its good but there are lots of places in the area (Granger or Farmgirl for instance) with much better value for money, left feeling ripped off. In terms of ambiance, the place looks nice but felt a bit like I was dining in a West Elm...
