    We had lunch at Bistro Freddie’s and really enjoyed it. Nice ambience, attentive service and intimate atmosphere. Very much liked the menu and everything was great quality. A small point but disappointing selection of desserts. Overall, very enjoyable and will definitely go back.

    Not really enjoyed our dinner. The waitress was not helpful when ordering and the mains came in late and my order was messed up. They did offer complimentary drinks to make up for the mistake. The dessert was spot on!

    We were really looking forward to this place and booked a month in advance. Unfortunately, it seems to have been a victim of its own success. We were running a bit late and called the restaurant to tell them we’d be 10 or 15 mins after the booking time. They were very keen to stress how that would mean we’d have less time on our table. When we arrived, they barely said hello before reminding us we’d have less time on our table. They ended up giving us more time on the table though… so the panic seemed unnecessary. Overall staff felt like they were very rushed and everyone was packed in. When I went to collect my coat, customers coats came were thrown everywhere by the doorway. Food was really average. Quite a limited drinks menu. My chicken was quite basic and the sauce was very salty. Friend’s steak was incorrectly cooked and when it was sent back, took another 10 minutes to come back. Would not return – just felt like they were trying to turn covers around as quickly as possible and food is overhyped and overpriced. Over £100 a head-hugely disappointing. Oh. And they charge a pound each for filter tap water. Apparently because of the way it’s filtered…

    Everything was great, only slight negative was that we were sat by the window and there was a bit of a draft coming through so it wasn’t that warm. Otherwise everything else was superb.
