Bistro Union never disappoints, but today’s lunch was my best experience yet! Dining with my wife, a friend, and one of my sons, we were once again blown away by the quality and variety of the menu. The ingredients are second to none, and the duck breast—truly one of the best I’ve ever tasted. This restaurant is a jewel in the crown of Abbeville Road. The food, service, and ambiance are consistently exceptional, making it a reliable choice every time. Thoroughly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.

Tried the Animal Kingdom afternoon tea. The room is nicely decorated in nude colours, and the food is just great. My favourites were the chicken and tarragon sandwich and the elderflower trifle. For the little ones though, it is special! My son was in complete awe as soon as we arrive. They have a display with huge stuffed animals, and his mouth dropped when the dessert trolley appeared! His favourite was Sam the sheep (cake pop with marshmallows). Great food for the grown ups…specially with a glass of champagne, but the little one had a great afternoon. Highly recommended.
